Your favorite brand?

What is your favorite brand of PC? I would have to say that mine is the Hewlett-Packard. I have used them for a number of years. Their support is great, and I like the design.

I've always owned HP clones. My bro would buy each piece by itself and then put the thing together.

Today I have a Dell and it works very well but I'm a little put off by all the marketing that's attached to it like AOL, McAfee, some media thang, etc..etc...

If I had to pick a brand for any component, it'd be Asus. Every Asus product I've ever owned, used, or put in a client machine has NEVER had a problem. I love it.

That's really the best way to go! You can save so much money and put together a much better computer!

I think that my fav. would probably be a dell. I have had so many problems with every other computer other than self built ones. I don't like that dells come with so much added stuff like aol and all that. and i don't think their support is the greatest and it upsets me that they outsource their CS to somewhere that they can barely speak english... i'm not racist at all but if your gonna sell computers in US get someone that can speak clear english...

I like Dell because that is what I've used most out of all PCs that I've actually bought. The rest I've always made myself.

My own brand is my favourite, home built is always better. But if I had to pick a proper brand I would probably go for Sony

custom here. Dell is also good in my opinion. You just need to know how to take the junk in advertising that comes with it off. Hardware though, it's a good comp for the money.

Now is a really good time to buy dell equipment, they've slashed prices to try and regain consumer confidence after there battery recall, they have also had to throw away and restart there financial accounts for last few years after some huge irregularities were found, shares have taken a battering recently so there is some really good bargains to be had at moment

Rep Power: 0 Shaft is on a distinguished road
My favorite PC brand and manufactuer would have to be HP. HP is an original and delivers great PCs. Although I would choose HP, my current PC isn't manufactuered by HP. It is a custom built computer with parts probably made by HP as well. Out of all the brands, I would have to say Dell is the worst yet most overated. If you didn't know, Dell tends to use a lot of use parts in its newly shipped computers. Thus, the price of some of their computers are unimaginably low. I also think Sony is overated. The only reason why Sony PCs sell for well over $1,000 most of the time is that it just has the name "Sony" on there. It is like a Lacrosse T-Shirt. If you add the logo, it is worth a lot more. Those are just my opinions and are somewhat facts as well.

Well, I have 2 computers now. One is a desktop pc and one is a laptop. First time I bough an HP, which I had for 2 years, but I noticed then, that that computer wasn't my thing. After that I really was looking for a quality computer. I found fujitsu siemens. Now a days all my computers are fujitsu siemen's. They make good reliable computer packages, which has everything what you need. It has good processors, enough ram and comes with good programs. What would you need more?

I do like most of the brands the Fujitsu Siemens, because it does awesome designs for the computers. It has very beautifull models, which are very good for work and internet using. They aren't really most for playing, but FS makes very good computers for domainers and workers. I have managed very well with my computer, which is FS amilo m7440g, this is really good. FS is a good brand, because it also have the best support I have never seen. They come to take your computer from your home door and back it repaired, if anything happens for it.
