HP used to be an amazing company up until the arrival of Ms. Fiorina in the late 90s. Their hardware used to be innovative and bullet-proof (HP calculators, early Laserjet printers, oscilloscopes, etc.) Even today, when the company is a shadow of a shadow of its former glory, I prefer buying their business class laptops for personal use (e.g. HP Elite x360, HP X2 Chromebook) since they have an innovative combination of unique features, user upgradability, and reliability. In the old days, HP and Intel used to be synonymous with 'Silicon Valley' as I understand it.
