HP or Dell
HP or Dell
I am going to buy a laptop for school and I am getting great deals because of Black Friday. Here are the options.
Now Dell wants to pre-load my computer with a bunch of stuff that I don't need or want. HP doesn't do that. HP is the better system at a cheaper price but I am looking for reliability. Are HP computers better or are Dells?

Re: HP or Dell
Well I went with the HP
Figured I should get the most for my buck.Besides, Dell spams your PC before you even get it. I dont want Napster, McAfee, Microsoft Works, and other crap.

Well the thing ships December 3 and I wont get it until the 10th or so. So I have almost a month to wait until I get it. Hopefully I forget about it and it wont seem that long.

Re: HP or Dell
I have a Dell right now.... nearly 9 years old and still running perfectly fine. Keep in mind that we never intentionally turn it off either... my parents wonder why we have a high electric bill, lol
I'd have to go with Dell personally
