What to look for
You want to find out what the best laptop for your needs are.
Screen size
The first thing to ask yourself is screen size. Does the screen size matter to you? If you need something small, you are going to want to get something with a small screen size. Already, you have narrowed down your choices.
The usage of the laptop

If not, you are not going to need a graphics card at all!

Now that you have the main things out of the way, you can look at some minor differences in the laptops. All the Compaq drivers are going to be updated, so the Compaq updates are not something that you have to worry about. You want to now look at :
Battery life
Do you need something with a good battery life? A good battery life will last anywhere between three to five hours. Some people need to carry it to places without an outlet often, but some people do not care about this issue because they will always be able to plug their laptop in certain places.
Designs
While this is important for some people, it is hardly an issue for others. Take a look at the design of the laptop model, and see if you are okay with it.
Design does not just apply to looks. Design can also apply to keyboard layout, positioning of the ports, the position of the fan, the way the screen opens up, the lights, the convenience of ports, etc.
