I had to return 3 POS HPs earlier last year when I bought mine on the same day... all came with virus/worm pre-installed and none would boot up. lol Once I realized it was viral-related, I got on the phone with tech and they helped get it straight. Apparently they tested the PCs in the warehouse and that's when the bug got into the system.
However, I do have to say that the HP tech staff was VERY helpful and got the 4th one up and working fine via phone. I swore I would never buy one again (after all the cussing I did that day!) but I have been pleasantly surprised with the punishment this one seems to be taking. I generally out and out KILL a new PC every 12 months or so - I think this one could go the long haul!
LMK what you get Gonzo... we've been looking at those as well. Would love to have someone's personal recomendation of what to get/what NOT to get.
