1. Anything with alot of memory...
2. I pick the third one
3. Recertified: COMPAQ Presario CQ60-210US AMD Athlon X2 QL-62(2.00GHz
4. I'd go with either of the Compaq Presarios. Nice dual core processors with 2Gb RAM and Vista Home Premium. Should be a good laptop for everyday use.
5. The last two are basically the same, maybe different model #'s but that's it. The first one is immidietely put out as it is beaten in many areas of the laptop. Less hard drive storage space, integrated graphics card rather than dedicated (moderately less performance in video and other functions, basically) Screen sizes and Operating systems are all the same. Also, the last two have a faster processor than the first one. One more thing that I had pointed out to me when I was searching among Re certified items. When a product is being mass produced somewhere, they usually don't inspect every product that comes off the assembly line. When an item is re certified, it is individually inspected to check for any malfunctions. So really, sometimes Re certified can be greater than if you bought it right when the item came out originally. So basically, I would probably go with either the second or third one, but more so the second one because you didn't supply the information about what type of memory it has (DDR/DDR2/DDR3 etc nor any other information about it for that matter.)
6. i would go for the second one!
