The Good: Attractive design; PCI Express slot; LightScribe double-layer optical drive; multiformat media-card reader.
The Bad: Wide-screen 15.4-inch display looks dim; speakers offer thin sound.
The Bottom Line: The attractive Compaq Presario V5000Z delivers good performance and a complete set of basic features for a remarkably low starting price.
