      When I got hired at my job where I could write and dictate policy, the first thing I did was write up a new IT Purchasing Policy with a “Banned Manufacturers” section right up top with HP right at #1 and Dell at #2

      Considering that HP is the other choice that most businesses consider, I’d take the Dell 100% of the time. HP’s laptops are complete and utter trash.

        Lenovo is at the top of the enterprise devices game right now. I always say they operate in cycles and usually each brand trades every 2 years who is at number one.

        I still will always shit on HP. And HPE Aruba switches are absolutely trash.

          Lenovo should be out just by virtue of being a Chinese company. You should not trust critical security devices to Chinese companies.

          What about for personal use? I’m in the market for a relatively high end machine around $2k, but build quality is pretty high up on my priorities.

        a) yes b) perhaps that also describes their management
