I've purchased three compaq PC's in my life. Two desktops and one laptop. NONE of them lived much beyond the warranty. I remember when Compaq used to stand for quality - When they were IBM's direct competitor in the 80's. Now they are the crap at the bottom of the clearance bins at any local computer store...
And I was sucker enough to by one from TigerDirect. My warranty was 90 days. Today is day 93. HP refuses to honor the warranty even though there should be some slack in the warranty for shipping.
Anyway, I'm just disgusted with the whole thing. If you EVER think about buying a compaq or HP product, I would tell you to steer clear. Compaq stands for crap and HP won't back it up.
Good luck if you decide to buy something they sell.
