I just bought another HP laptop on Boxing Day... I buy them because they've been good with me since I bought my first HP in 2001, so why not stick with them? That one is still running fast and solid too, and it was refurbished.
I like Macs better now, but when I buy PCs they're usually HP(or Compaq, same thing).

yea i agree, mac are great and all, but are too expensive. theyre always 1000+, and you can get a laptop just as good as a mac for less than 1000, just with a windows OS instead.

But you have to remember that with a Mac you are paying the high price for the software and general design

Well if HP did something right, it looks like in the U.S. Dell did something a little better. According to this article, Dell replaced HP as the #1 selling manufacturer in America.

The new laptop i picked up just recently was an HP. It replaced my old Dell laptop.
Hp/Compaq has always been good to me. I'd buy another one.

I did build my desktop. My laptop on the other hand, i just buy with all the fun little upgrades. And some people prefer to buy as opposed to building there own pc's. So, i don't think it's a matter of common sense so much as a matter of personal preference.

Not everyone is able to build a working pc, but I must say that I'm surprised that so many people prefer hp, my cousin had about 3 hp desktops and he had more problems than my dell pc. I must admit that for me dell is the way to go.
