poor service/support from HP

[BrianG]

Believe me, if I could dump M$ altogether I would! Their stuff is too expensive (especially the office suite!) for what you get. I flat out refuse to go with Vista. What a piece of CRAP! Talk about tons of code that does nothing except consume resources!

I tried the dual boot Linux thing, and while it worked ok, I never got the video performance from whatever video card I had, so the game that did work, worked poorly.
