Their lower price laptops are junk. The ribbon to the screen breaks. Their charger cords break internally. The wire is about the size of a hair. I switched my college kids to Asus and they had none of these problems. HP pro laptops I’ve used are better.
One thing that drives me nuts are their printer menus. Every one is different and not user friendly. Some of them have no way to set a default, so you have to enter your preferences every time.
I had a photo printer that worked nicely but when I got a new computer, no one in customer service could figure out how to make it work on the new computer.
Some of their printers sound like a piece of diesel rock crushing equipment. I’ve had ones I couldn’t use at night since they woke everyone who was asleep. I don’t find “bang, ka-clunk” a useful feature.
A lot of their products I’ve used are made by hardware and software developers who follow this motto: “OK, close enough. We’ve already spent too much time on this thing. Start selling them.”
I used great older HP equipment when I was in college long ago. It took me a long time to face up to the fact that today’s HP is not the same company.
pillory Meg
Come on you two! If Meg Whitman can figure it out, so can you. Today is the day for you to learn it!!
Search for “html images”.
What you are looking for starts with <img src =
Practice by writing a fake post with your image in it. DON’T “Post” it, since we will see all your mistakes. Just “Preview” it. If it doesn’t work, try to find what you did wrong. Fix it and “Preview” again. Only if it works correctly should you “Post” it.
If you give up after seriously working on it by trying numerous times, “Mail” me.
Can’t understand normal thinking
I quit with anything HP years ago. Their printers suck, especially.
Ha! Just bask in the knowledge that you have internet superpowers!
The head of company that’s addicted to H1-B and OPT visas is against Trump? Who knew?
I hope President DJT thanks HP & Silicon Valley for their support by eliminating the H1-B and OPT visas... permanently. It’s long past time these guest workers were sent home.
I bought you were supposed to spell it out.
By the way, just a little side note, that everyone who votes for the she devil will rot in hell.
“If you have ever had the chance to work for an HP executive since the tech crash, what is really clear is they care about one thing...
Money and Power for themselves.
The old HP died in ‘95”
Yep. Between Carly and Meg, they have turned what used to be a good company into pure crap.
