The brand is meaningless these days.  As far as I know, HP doesn't
manufacture *anything* any more, it just rebadges and resells, trading
on the value of a name it no longer deserves.  The real HP is now Agilent.


FWIW, all of the IT people I know personally spec either Lenovo or Dell
laptops for their business purchases.
