my BestBuy story with an HP [Compaq, actually] laptop is here at http://www.plusaf.com/soapbox/bestbuy.htm

after a lot of patient pushback, i got essentiall a full refund on my original purchase.

ps... not all of the hp support is bad... here's a msg from a neighbor i tried to help get her multifunction printer working a few months ago...

"By the way you might be interested in the outcome of my printer/fax problem which you tried to help me with. I finally spent hours on the phone with HP. It seems that the printer/fax machine they sent me was not the correct version to go with the software. After several unsuccesful tries, I got a technician who figured it out and sent me a new machine. Then it loaded in no time.

Thanks again for you help.
Marcia"
