I don't like factory computers period, as far as HP goes with the software I couldn't tell you about the laptops, but I have run into faulty Media Center Recovery Disc. Most of our customers opt for a fresh install anyway without the use of the Recovery Disc. The most trouble I have is the Dell drivers, they set them up so that Dell Techs can read them. Factory companies put to much junk on their systems anyway and most people hate it. I prefer HP for the amount that you get for the price, Alienware is good but a rip off, E-Machines are a nothing more than Gateway's low cost line, Gateway and Sony have good lines but are expensive, I have used Acer and they work pretty good, Toshiba has a problem with the screen mounts wearing out quick. My personal favorite is the Sony X505 but it's about $3,000.
