Pros: Excellent color, good speed for home computer. Cons: Extremely poor response and service for repairs.
At the time of purchase, approx. 1999, the A900 has excellent reviews. All research indicated best for the money ($250 to $300) at that time. However the Fax part broke after about 18 months and I tried for about 6 months to find someone to repair it. Email inquiries to the manufacturer regarding what might be the problem were ignored. Discussions with other people regarding troubleshooting the problem elicited responses such as "WHY did you buy a COMPAQ??? They're so difficult to get repaired!!!". I've found that to be more than true. I have been without a fax since the machine broke.
