What does this mean for GES? Well it won't take me 20 minutes to compile the mod on the train anymore, which equates to more development time!

Honestly, I am starting to dislike hp products man. Here I have a touchpad which already has two cracks near the speaker. I never dropped it, banged it, or threw it.

Look at post # 88   http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1250645&page=9

We bought a hp pavilion dv2315nr laptop and a year later the gpu melted due to poor heat dissipation. Then I went through a lawsuit and finally got a new laptop for free!

Im gonna stick with asus, lenovo, sony brands.

good luck with that laptop. Enjoy it!

Eh, I disagree. I've had nothing but great experiences with HP products (knock on wood).

My laptop is an HP nc6220 that's been with me for 6 years now. This thing's been dropped, thrown, bumped, scratched, and every other thing. I've had Windows XP, Windows 7, Ubuntu, and even Mac OSX on it. It's from an era before metal bodies, and even after so much abuse the plastic body is scratched to hell and the ventilation covers have broken off but the thing still cranks away as well as ever.

Mangley:
HP products can be touch and go from my experience... I don't think there's a universal standard of quality for their stuff that you can go by. They do good printers and scanners, but they're always dependent on software which is usually bloated with unnecessary features and mandatory updates.

killermonkey:
Yah this laptop is solid aluminum construction and has the same keyboard as the mac pro. I currently have an HP that overheats, cracks, etc. However, the thing works and has worked for 3 years every single day. And i abuse the shit out of my laptop.

That link you posted is for a defunct product, and its not even a laptop.
