The only HP I heard rumors about being not good, not great, but acceptable. Was the HP dev one laptops. Which are sold out, I believe they arent making them anymore either. I have no first hand experience with them.
Ironic that their only decent computer they built in decades. They killed off the product line even after many good reviews. I believe it cuts into their disposable computer business model by having a reliable one in the mix.
Cant have that now can they? Lol
