| 788789 | 2009-07-07 03:51:00 | HP merged with Compaq / now own Compaq, so it wont matter if you buy one or the other, its the same company. And probably filled with the same crap | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||

And probably filled with the same crap True - HP own Compaq - but a HP Business laptop and a Compaq laptop are two very different things. The bloat is similar, the business machines come out slightly worse off but the HP laptops are of a much better build quality. HP (www.thetoptensite.com) Compaq (www.hardwarezone.com) |

| 788791 | 2009-07-07 03:56:00 | Good thing I dont have either :p If I did, I would probably reformat it and start from scratch | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 788792 | 2009-07-07 03:58:00 | Me too. ;) | wratterus (105) | ||
| 788793 | 2009-07-07 04:11:00 | And dell? cheaper online, but how do they compare? |

| 788794 | 2009-07-07 04:12:00 | You'll be fine unless it breaks. They are probably slightly better than Compaq. Their warranty support is very average. I wouldn't buy one. | wratterus (105) | ||
