HP wants you to pay up to $36/month to rent a printer that it monitors::“Never own a printer again.”

      HP stands for hot paninis, because their laptops get so hot they can be used as a panini press.

        I still have my HP laptop from a few years ago, and despite running like crap nowadays, it still manages to warm my legs through my desk

      Dev One laptop isn’t bad, got one on eBay for less than half of its original price and it’s a solid machine. Other than that, HP can chew glass.

        I will refuse to buy anything HP, even used stuff, purely out of spite for them pulling this shit.

            Okay, I might make an exception for antique tech from the '90s or earlier, back when HP was actually good (e.g. a LaserJet 4, an HP-28C calculator, the function generator somebody posted in another thread yesterday, etc.). That’s very unlikely, though.

      Was HP any good ever?

      I remember disliking all of their Laps when I was a teen, but maybe it was a bad purchase by my parents too…
