I'll second that. There was a time when I
thought HP was a
great company making great products. Although they still make some
excellent high-end computers, their home and office desktops and
laptops are horrible. I have never dealt with a single HP computer
that worked right. Their outstanding lead in the printer business
is a thing of the past. There are now many companies making
printers just as good, for a hell of a lot less money. Occasionally
I see Circuit City or another retailer running a contest in which
the prize is a HP computer. My remark is always "Second prize is
_two_ HP computers."
Quill is currently running a special that if you buy a
specific Deskjet printer (forget which model) you get a second lesser
Deskjet printer for free. I had to order an inexpensive stand alone
printer for someone today and ended up with that deal.
