DON'T BUY HP (Hewlett-Packard) PRODUCTS!

DO NOT BUY THE NEW HP SPECTRE! I have barely used it and I have had problems from the time I opened the box. They throw a lot of Intel 7 processor and NVidia stickers on the machine and it sucks. It collects dust while I use my Ipad. That's right my, Ipad is more capable than this $1,600 mega laptop. I regret the day I purchased this. I will literally trade anyone here for an original gameboy

I bought an HP10s calculator at a local discount store and have a receipt
identifying the product and when it was bought. Within 3 months it became
defective. The warranty printed in the HP10s booklet covers it for 12
months, and does not mention warranty restrictions based on where it was
purchased.

I have been repeatedly REFUSED repair or replacement under the warranty
because the store I bought it at "is not an authorized HP reseller."
No such requirement is given in the warranty statement.

I also have an HP Deskjet 6540 printer. It has had technical problems from
day one, clearly the result of POOR QUALITY CONTROL and BAD DESIGN. I am an
electronics engineer and know the consequences of bad hardware and software
design when I see them. In the case of this printer the software is
defective, and when fixed using HP's support instructions it soon becomes
defective again in the same way.

HP obviously, with typical corporate arrogance, does not give a damn for its
customers, only for its own "bottom line!"

The honoring of warranties, good design, and manufacturing quality control
cost all companies money - but are essential to customer satisfaction.
Hewlett-Packard apparently agrees with P.T. Barnum - "There's a sucker born
every minute."

Don't become their sucker - DON'T BUY HP PRODUCTS!

I won't buy HP personal computer stuff anymore either. Remember the old
Laserjat III? Those days are gone forever!

I wonder if HP still makes the excellent TV and radio broadcast test gear
they used to produce? I found nothing better when I was a broadcast
engineer.

Not HP anymore. They split it off and renamed it Agilent and since then it
has become Keysight

Still making excellent gear though.
