The 320GB Serial-ATA (SATA) hard drive (5400 RPM) maintains high data transfer speeds, meaning you don't need to wait long for your documents and pictures to open. To support this, the Compaq Presario CQ57 comes with either a 2GB or 4GB memory as standard.

The Compaq Presario CQ57 range is pre-packed with the latest applications, tools and operating systems to ensure that you get the ultimate computing experience. It comes with Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit) as standard, the perfect choice for going beyond mere email and web surfing to improve personal productivity and get the best in all kinds of digital entertainment.
The latest Microsoft operating system, Windows 7 comes with several performance improvements that are designed to sleep and resume quicker, be less memory hungry and spot USB devices much faster. Windows 7 simplifies everyday tasks such as introducing improved taskbar previews, bigger icons and creative ways to personalise your desktop. It provides easy and quick access to your favourite pictures, songs, websites and documents through new jump lists. Finally the search function has been improved to allow you to easily find files on your PC or even web content.
Well that's just for starters, take a look at this line-up of pre-loaded software:

Finally, for your peace of mind.
You'll want the best in technical support, so it comes with a one-year, pick-up and return, parts and labour warranty. And naturally, this can be extended to protect against accidental damage for up to 3 years, for a small extra premium.

Style Name:Core i3, 4GB, 320GB
I bought this Laptop in December last year. It's got ruined in January 36 days after I bought it.
Phoned up the support and they told me it has to be repaired at the factory because it's got a motherboard issue.
I got a quote for the repair time as 7-9 days. They picked it up the very next day and the third day they changed the status of the laptop as repair delayed for some reason. I phoned them up to figure out what is going on and I was told I have to wait 12 of march for the new motherboard!!! (more than a month)
The lady said I know this is unacceptable and forwarded my call to the complaint department although I didn't ask for it.
Have a guess the complaint department told me that I have to wait next month and they can't do anything else.
So think before you buy any HP product because they can't afford any stock at the repair factory. (Flextronics at Manchester)
Neither can afford the "very" high delivery cost from China.
I asked the complaint department what's the point to having your department if you can't resolve anything at all?
This Company is just like a small dodgy cowboy builder entrepreneur with the cheap White old Ford Transit.
How is it called? Gate warranty or something similar I think. You lose all the warranty after you got through on door.
This was the last HP/Compaq product I ever bought.

Style Name:Core i3, 4GB, 320GB
Bought as a birthday present for my daughter.
Sold as 'new' but had obviously already been opened and setup by someone called 'Richard', therefore the first thing I did was a factory reset.
Reasonably sturdy laptop with good basic specs for the price, but the WiFi kept cutting out despite a perfectly good signal and required a full reboot to reconnect, and the speakers sounded distorted.
Therefore I am returning this and will buy a different brand to replace it.

Style Name:Core i3, 4GB, 320GB|Amazon Verified Purchase
The product just feels too delicate. I bought the item from Amazon, and it arrived as expected. I switched it on, and clicked to register it. The PC then powered down, and would not reboot again. The lights come on, the hard drive I can hear working away, but no screen. Its a badly made, flimsy plastic item. I have always had HP or Compaq laptops, but I would seriously not buy this brand again.
