HP Laptops - are they any good?
 

well?

Go with DELL serious, All the HP's Ive owned have not been superly great. Theres usually an issue with integrated hardware and software malfunctioning.... you will knowtice the formentioned right around os upgrade time.

www.epinions.com is a great site with nice reviews of almost all electronics

if you're really trying to buy a high dollar laptop like the one you posted get a http://www.voodoopc.com/ or a Sager (same as Aleinware) http://pctorque.com/

Fucking junk dude!

I have owned several HP and compaq computers. I would never get another one, complete garbage.

I just picked up another Sony Vaio desktop today and it was more expensive but they have proven to be much more solid units.

I'm happy with my dell inspiron laptop

I want this one, can't afford anything else at the moment.

i bought a brand new hp pavilion 2 weeks ago..

i used it 4 times.... it is now broken (software ) ... i get to travel around the world with 30 pounds of extra baggage that doesnt work now... (at least it feels 30 pounds with all the adapters and converters and the bag etc.)... im so highly pissed

one HP i have overheats.

I'm telling you do some searches on Sagers they are the same laptop as an Aleinware (with the exception of the new body Alienware came out with this year) You can pick up one in that price range and it will be much better than a HP or Dell.. They also have warranties so it's not like you are buying junk.

I have a compaq Presario and its the best!! Never lets me down.
:)

no, they're not.
my girlfriend has one and it's done nothing but give her problems.

go with a compaq presario. owned by the same company, but so much better. i love my presario laptop.

2998.00

what I dont really like is the harddrive
80 gb 5200 :(

yours too? my girlfriend's pavilion gets so hot that it's almost too hot to pick up. any idea why?

vs.

$ 2839

there are several models, you can normally build them to suit

them dont have that option, though i guess i can get used to 80gb...
do u have one or have an experience with a sager?

I as a rule classify compaqs and hp in the same group....not only because HP owns compaq now but because they suck too...

My HP overheats as well, (It's an AMD900 Pavilion 5415) I need to take a external fan with me to prevent it.

Any hotshot lawyers want to take on a class action for these pieces of crap?

It also gets so hot it made me sterile!

you cant afford one anyway :1orglaugh
