[...] Parcelforce texted the delivery slot. No delivery. Parcelforce and HP’s tracking systems then claimed I had refused the parcel. I scheduled a redelivery for the next day. Parcelforce then rang me and the agent acknowledged a delivery had not been attempted and that the tracking information was false. It claimed HP had requested that the parcel be returned to sender.

Their stuff also seemed so cheap and non-robust :(

I have my share of issues with Dells, but the last HP machine I had killed itself through fan failure and overheating.

My Dells tend to break to wear and tear from me being not so gentle with them - I think I've had two Dells that had hinge issues, but that's not as major as an overheating problem.

I would buy an Acer before I got anywhere near anything by HP. I don't Envy their product people
