Had Compaq laptops for years before HP took 'em over. GREAT tech support back then. Late experiences with HP laptops has ben good. Built pretty well, haven't needed to call Tech Support. One thing, though. Don't buy the low end units. Spring for the more "professional" models, equipped with XP. They are usually a little more robust and trust me you should have XP Pro if U R gonna use Windows. Spring for the service contract IF THE CALL CENTER FOR THAT SERVICE IS N THE US. You usually then don't get someone in Bangladesh if U have to call, and if you don't speak Urdu, as I do not, you can have a conversation with the tech. Hope this helps, -- Doc

HP and Compaq are the same company, so their products are very similar, except HP is usually a tad bit more expensive Pros: 1. Relatively inexpensive 2. Customizable on their website. 3. Costco carries them 4. Generally Reliable Cons: 1. not much here, the only one i would say is that HP/Compaq does not offer the top of the line graphics card for gaming.

They are both made by the same company, Hewlett Packard. I see more HP boxes vs the Compaq in my daily work. I prefer the HP. Mostly because they have been around a lot longer than the Compaq's and HP has always made machines from Servers and tape backup units to printers. Plus HP puts more into the HP line and not so much in the Compaq line.
