Fucking HP laptops SUCK BALLS!!!!
So I bought a hp laptop after my dell got stolen. less then a year later the wireless card goes on it. So I send it back to them for repair and they LOOSE the fucking machine.
It takes them 2 1/2 months to replace it so Im on a rental that entire time. They finally replace it and 2 months later the new laptop has a hardware failure on it and i have to SEND IT BACK AGAIN. What are the odds Ill ever see this machine again once it goes back ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() fucking piece of crap hp |

Not to make light of your situation but how does a service department lose a computer? I mean really, how?

They lost your shit? Now you're scaring me.
They have had my laptop for over a month now. The god damn hard drive committed suicide within months of purchase. They keep telling me they don't have the piece they need to fix it yet and keep giving me another ETA every few days. I was just about to call them too because today was another ETA they gave me.

However the quality of my HP laptop in general is terrible (I think) compared to Acer and some other brands. I wish I just stuck with Acer but I was blinded by the nice looks of the HP

Mine sucks too, the backlight or something in the monitor went out so I had to send it back to get fixed, got it back fixed in like 5 days though which isn't bad.

I will never own a HP Laptop or Desktop. I have worked on so many of them, they are one of the worst building computers you can buy.

My experience with HP differs.
Granted, I've only owned this laptop for about 6 months now - and I've never had to send it back to the shop - but I couldn't be happier, I don't think.

Sony - in general - can suck a nut, imho.
Dealing with their customer support (multiple times) has got to be of the worst experiences I've ever gone through... It's to the point where I'm now sworn off purchasing anything with a "Sony" stamp on it, provided I have the option.

Had an HP for about 4 years. Worked great.
I had a hard drive failure in the first year after I slapped it. ![]() I had to reformat the harddrive a few months ago because I couldn't boot up. Somehow I think that was a windows problem because I reinstalled windows and the hardrive works fine.

Well my Sony Vaio I had since '03 is still working as my backup and the only problem I've ever had with it is the battery life only lasts for about 10 minutes max now lol.

I have an HP, that I just retired to my son. Got a virus, and needed to format, so I got a new one. It had a hardware failure 2 times, and they was fixed within a week each time. other than that is he been awesome. No issue with the wireless, in fact, the antenna for the wireless in that is better than in my dell.

The best way to get an idea of a system's reliability, or a manufacturer for that matter, is by checking out their refurbished section, or line-up!
HP has a HUGE one! Best Buy and many other retailers flog their massive and constantly growing list of system (lines) that have common problems! But don't take my word for it. Simply G00G ""HP refurb"", or ""refurbished"". If on a budget, and you simply MUST buy prebuilt shit, buy a Dell! Yah, HP makes the odd good system, when they're luck! However, Dell has a much better track recored. Better yet, do you self a favour and buy AlienWare!! Unlike the others just mentioned, they do not merely build around whatever cheap ass hardware they can get their grubby mitts on! They build rock solid monster!! Another key selling feature is they do not litter the system with the obscure proprietary garbage (software, system setting, hardware) that HP does. |

with out a lie .. HP 100% made me go MAC .. I bought one of their top of the line DV models and got an entire 5 months out of it .. working to keep it running the whole time .. drivers weren't working for this and that .. went to upgrade it to 64bit with the "upgrade DVD" and ended up having to call HP only to find out that the notebook wasn't ready to ... WTF .. it was sold and marketed as 64bit ready .. simple things like the webcam failed repeatedly .. fuck it was a nightmare from the first week on .. I gave it to my 3 year old to play games on .. my MACBook Pro absolutely slaughters it ..

I've never had a problem with my HP or Compaq laptops, although I do find it funny that the HP laptop is a Compaq model, and the Compaq laptop is an original HP model.

I'm on my 3rd HP laptop, and I've had two Dells and an Acer. The Acer was the worst of the bunch, and the HP's have been the best.

I fell ya. 6 months after I got my HP laptop the HD went on it. Had to take it to the Geek Squad to get my shit off of it because there was irreplacable photos on it. So that cost me almost 200.00. Fuckers. Then after that about a year later my backlight went. Other than that no issues.

Maybe if you can afford to pay the price of a new car for an un-upgradable computer...

I wonder about the logistics about the support center you sent it to :X
I had mine picked at home (no cost) for repair, lets see if they fuck it up (I'm must say given how they dealt with the process so far I'm pretty confident!) |

My boyfriend's HP laptop went out in early December (one week shy of the first year). They outsource their support to India and if you have a Southern accent like me, you are in trouble. Got it back, wouldn't load.
Long story short, this is the fourth return and he hasn't had a working computer 2 weeks out of 2 months. This time it is getting replaced but you lose all the programs and templates. Still another week before it comes back. Yes, they paid shipping both ways but what the fuck. |

I have a HP Pavilion 9000 Series and it's the best thing I have ever bought! Around 2500$ and it is worth it.

I'd never get an HP, heard way too many bad stories about them.
My trusty Dell laptop has been on almost permanently now for coming up to 2.5 years without ONE single problem. This machine goes on, and on, and on. I would definately buy Dell again, or I'm strongly thinking about a Mac next |
