Pros: Power & Speed Cons: Conflicts, Faulty Motherboard, Configuration
September of 1999 I bought the Hewlett Packard HP8580C. With 500 MHz Pentium III processor, 128 MB ram, a 20-gigabyte hard drive, 6x DVD rom drive, a 4x CD-RW drive, Nvidia Riva TNT, and Rockwell PCI Fax Modem Enumerator, I thought this is the computer...
Pros: nice features, easy set up, reasonable price Cons: none for me
Last fall I upgraded from my (don't laugh) AST 166mhz Pentium to the HP 8580C. Needless to say, the increase in power and speed has been very impressive!
I bought this machine at Best Buy because of the service warranty and because of a...
Pros: great price, high performance Cons: Faulty power supply
The 8580 seems to be a very good, CPU system. It comes with a 500 Mhz Pentium III processor and 128 MB of ram, a 20 gigabyte hard drive, 6 max speed DVD rom drive, and a CD-RW drive...it sounds too good to be true, especially at a price around 1800...
Pros: Great price for lots of accessories Cons: It takes up more room than a laptop....
When I received my letter of acceptance to Miami University this past summer, I knew I would have to purchase a computer for school. After browsing through our local computer stores, CompUSA, MicroCenter, and Best Buy, I realized that the best deal was...
I got a great buy on this computer. It was the last one in the store and it was on display so I only paid $1,040.00. Meanwhile it was marked $1,500.00. So needless to say I was excited to get all of that computer for that price.
Pros: works like a charm Cons: no double click button on the mouse, can't figure out how to adjust my screen
Oh the hassle of trying to find the computer fit for you when you go to college. So, I really don't know much about computers, but I did know that I would need something very reliable since I would be using it all the time.
I am currently a...
Pros: 20 Gig HD, Cd writer, 6X DVD Player, Great Programs Cons: has to be shut down after 6 hours for cool down.
I purchased this product because I needed a new computer after my old one crashed. Mind you, the one that crashed was as old as the dinosaurs...it was an 486 a pre-pentium.
Anyone who wants a faster processor and lots of room on the hard drive, a...
As a consultant of sorts I helped an individual in the purchasing of a new computer system. After finding out what she needed we went shopping. She was most impressed with the $400 rebate, I was impressed by the speed, brand name, components, software...
Pros: Great package Cons: No 800 number to call for help
I bought my 8580C computer last August, and even though the price dropped $200.00 the following month I still received a great deal. After almost one year this computer still holds it's value over ninty percent of the computers on the market today. The...
Pros: Great quality, Its the pc for you Cons: cost
This is a somewhat pricey computer but its worth every penny. I myself purchased one a few months ago and ive been glued to it ever since. It really is a cinch to set up and is somewhat easy to operate. You should have some cpu expereince before buying...

Pros: FAST and Reliable Cons: Poor Quality Control on the first machine
We upgraded our computer from a 586 model this 500 MgHz, Pent III. It is like changing from a bicycle to a Corvette. This machine does everything we want it to do and more. Since getting set up and operating there have been no problems with this...
Pros: Cd/r, descent hard drive Cons: Weak processor
Computers today are difficult and expensive to keep up to date. The HP 8580c provides a computer that will keep up for a few years. The hard drive, processor and RAM are good enough to for most people unless you do CAD or some other advanced computer...
