Nothing wrong with HP. Good reliable machines that are well designed and built. I've used them at work for years with no problems.

Personally speaking, for home use I'd still go with Apple though.

I'll only either buy HP or Compaq.

We've been using them where I work for the 10 1/2 years I've been there and never had any major problems or issues with them.

I've nver had a problem with my laptop. Until it fell off a low table and its screen broke. Currently in repair

It still works if you hold it in a funny fashion.

I've had the same HP laptop (G5000) for 5 years with literally no problems, they're excellent.
