Opinions expressed by BIZ Experiences contributors are their own.

The Compaq Armada E500 P3450/14T is a bulked up--but notbulky--Pentium III-powered laptop. A plucky 450 MHz processor isthe centerpiece (Pentium II 366 MHz also available, starting at$2,099). A 14.1-inch screen helps to qualify this as adesktop-replacement notebook. A monstrous 12GB hard drive, built-in56 Kbps modem and 10/100 Kbps Ethernet fill the E500 out. Best ofall, this laptop can hold up to three batteries for a combined ninehours of run time. A one-year warranty is standard.
