I was pretty disappointed that our HP Destop which we bought brand new at Best Buy completely died after a little more than one year. Of course since it was just over one year they wouldn't do anything about it and said the warranty was up, etc, etc.  So I guess the motherboard just completely bit the dust, we were able to salvage the hard drive.

 

I have not been impressed with the HP computers, a friend also had one that was constantly having problems.  On the other hand we have a Compaq Presario 2100 laptop that we've had for six years and is still working just fine!   So you have to wonder about Hewlett Packard.

 

Anybody else had similar bad experiences with HP computers? I wonder if we just got a bad one or if HP just skimps when it comes to the construction of their computers.

YES! An HP with Windows Vista I bought for my son was garbage. On the other hand...my refurbished Compac SR1950NX with Windows XP works great. Go figure???
