Compaq's consumer brand from 1993 — the home PC meant to carry the corporate heavyweight into the living room.
Compaq launched Presario in 1993 as its brand for the home: cheaper and more pre-packaged than the office-focused Deskpro line. The first model was an all-in-one with monitor and computer in one shell, unusual for a PC at the time. When HP bought Compaq in 2002 it kept Presario as a budget name for both desktops and laptops, finally retiring the brand around 2013.
