HP is not too bad. One of the computer shops I worked at only sold HP products, and I was working on getting my HP certification, but it didn't pan out. In fact I built one while I was working there and they got a little miffed I didn't buy from there since I worked there. What I have now is, again, self built. It has parts from AMD, Nvidia, Toshiba, Maxtor, Realtek, etc. Not top of the line or anything, just stuff my brother had laying around, but I will be doing a major upgrade soon so hopefully it will get better. I do need some upgrades. You can see my current specs on my xfire profile.
