HP is fucking garbage and their customer service is FAR worse than Toshiba. Dell FTW. I have at least 3 dell laptops… one of them has been overclocked from 1.7ghz to 2.25ghz for 2 years now. It’s 6 years old. IMO you can’t go wrong however you should always buy the warranty. it’s inevitable that w/e you buy will need repair. Best bet is to stick with the company with the best customer service. Dell has come to my house and replaced stuff in my old laptop like 4 times, never at a cost to me. :thumbup
