HP laptops

FrankC — 4/19/2007 7:54:58 PM (archived)

I will never buy another.

I have two daughters with high end HP laptops and both have suffered from power supply problems.

Laptop #1 was sent back early on and was returned repaired. Within six months it stopped powering up and this time it was sent back with a new mother board and hd.

The second laptop was repaired aftyer being dropped and now it is running hot and shutting down. No doubt it will eventually need repair.

I am done with HP. Dell and Toshiba are more reliable and I suspect almost any brand would be better.
