Compaq. Short Warranties. Shitty Products.

My Presario 1685 (Laptop!) couldnt even pass 5 minutes of a prime95 torture test. That and I was forced to RMA it within the first year over a shitty voltage converter/battery charger.

When I peered through the open PCMCIA slot I saw a 1mm gap between the ultra-fat-foam-TIM and the processor (k6-2).

Since have tried everything I can to improve the thing but it's still a POS.
