HP Latops - Pavillion

First, I will NEVER buy another HP computer. The vertical lines on this Pavillion are just one of several reasons. Heck, I don't think I will even buy a printer or paper from them.

When I first opened it up it took days before I could even use for anything at all. Despite calls to their so called "Tech Support" I had to resolve all lock-ups (on first booting), crashes, hangs, BSOD's & slow down's on my own. All due to a ton of crapware they had installed and just plain stupid configuration default settings.

It's out of warranty now and yeah, they want more than its worth to "fix" it. It has not been mishandled in ANY way or subjected to any kind of environmental extremes etc. And, this is not the only HP product I've had or, people I know first hand have had that came new with problems to legion to mention.

GOD I AM SOOOO GLAD Carly Fiorina is not now our VP ! ! !

I purchased my notebook in August 2008.  In November 2008, the hard drive failed.  Hp replaced under warranty.  In February 2009, the notebook hinges became so loose that they could no longer hold the screen upright.  Hp replaced the entire monitor under warranty.  When I got the notebook back, the hard drive wouldn't read the cd rom drive.  Come to find out that Hp did some kind of hard drive cleaning on the notebook without my authorization.  After fighting with Hp, I ended up fixing it myself by reseating the drive.  Today, I close the lid which puts the computer to sleep.  Upon opening it up, I have a wonderful red line running right down the middle of the monitor.  Since my warranty is expired, Hp would gladly repair the monitor for the low price of $398.00 + shipping and taxes. Thiefs.

You got it right. Almost thought I was looking at the wrong computer. I dont know why but I bought another HP Laptop. The zd8000 still works like a champ but the longer it runs, the more lines it gets. But do you really think its HP? I am sure they source out their LCD's. I am not defending them because they should stand behind their product. I would just like to know the alternate solution for throwing a good working machine in the trash.
