Thanks Sven, my last few have been HP plus one Compaq that I accidentally purchased. I haven't had any particular problems with them.
Of course the first HP I encouraged my mother to get started having problems with its USB controller a few weeks ago. Just outside of the 1 year manufacturers warranty. Very frustrating. I will probably have to pay money to have someone look at it.
Its got me thinking that maybe extended manufacterer's warranties make a little sense if you're going to have a machine for 3 years. At least for my mother who isn't always looking for the latest like I am.
The Dells to me always seem to lack something spec wise as you can see by the listing in my original post. But I can't say what they're like build wise as I've never owned one.
