how many people messed with hp laptops?

Well since i had taken my hp laptop dv5 pavilion i had suffered alot of problem from crashing of os to brusting of charger and battery down to display problem and the usb not working and so many. I got repaired that many time now i left it as it and advice all not to purchase HP laptop.

I'm sorry for what happened to you, but it looks more like a malfunction of your computer than a HP problem. I've had an HP for two years and - even though I prefer Acer - I have never experienced any problem. The only annoying things are automatic updates, but after disabling that feature I was fine.

This is more of a weird outcome, I do not know of the place you bought it but is it reliable? I have always used and favored hps and I have had them for awhile with no problems and great work that I can also customize.

I have had my dv9870eb for almost 3 years now and never has it failed on me except for that one time when the motherboard kind of melted, but I just brought it back to the store and they fixed it under guarantee and never had any problems till now.

Based on SquareTrade research of The Most Reliable Laptops, HP gets the last rank or should I say HP gets 9th Rank from 9 Laptops with 25% chance failure in second years. Although HP gets bad rank in reliability, yet HP gets the highest rank in their sold products. I think it's kind of ironic.
