I needed a new laptop and saw some ads and i was considering getting a hewlett packard or compaq laptop.are they any good?
I prefer Dell personally. I have/had a HP and its not a bad machine however there are many little problems that for myself as a software engineer really annoyed me, but if you getting it for normal use than an HP should be just fine.
Depends on the series. Generally, HP uses pretty good parts for it's laptops. They also have an easy-to-use website that helps you out a lot. So, normally, yes. I would suggest the HP pavilion series.
If I had a choice I would get an HP because overall I think they're better and more stable than Compaq, but granted I don't have either. I have a Mac, but I've had HP computers before and never really had any problems, but I've heard a lot of bad things about Compaq.
HP makes good laptops. If you decide to go with them, aim for the Pavilion or Envy consumer product lines. Compaq is owned by HP and they use the name more for their very low budget line of Presario laptops. If you're looking more for business/professional laptops then look into the Elite/Probook brands.
well the report I read in the Laptop consumers magazine Hp is the No1 worst computers followed by Dell at No 2, these reports take everything into account from hardware to after sales service their report give top spots to Asus, Acer, Sony and Toshiba Make up your mind what to go for.
