Well, I am not a techie, but have always had a solid array of computers, back to my first - the Apple IIe. In the last 12 years, I have owned 4 HP computers, 2 desktops two laptops. I have also had an Acer desktop and one of each made by Dell. Prior to that, we had a number of Compaqs. Compaqs were always shite. The acer was okay, but I have never had any issues at all with any HP product, aside from the sometimes cumbersome pre loaded software. I have had 2 HP printers now as well, and two from other mfrs which both crapped out in under 2 years. All of our neighbors now use HP as well, except one fellow whose company bought him a Toshiba, which has worked well also. In my experience, with all consumer electronics, its a crapshoot. Including Apple, from whom I have two phones, 3 kids Itouches, and for a brief time an Imac, which from day one never worked worth a crap at all - and after horrendous attempts to resolve the issues, I'll never buy an imac again...every brand has its haters and fanboys - form your own opinion...
