Default NEVER TOUCH ANY HP HEWLETT PACKARD PRODUCTS

So this company makes lack luster products and has been pissing me off in the little i have had to deal with them.
For a simple story and i will note it like this

-Girlfriend gets hp laptop as gift

-hp makes shitty product and when she goes back to school a year later and uses the laptop more it breaks

-apparantly her series is notorious for motherboard overheating issues and it causes deterioration of the wifi card causing it to be spotty for a few weeks then transitions over to not working. And eventually stops working all together.

-so it was recalled and they replaced the motherboard for free

-2 weeks later this "so called revision" in the motherboard that fixes the overheating issue really just means they replaced it with the same board as before.

-so i get a case manager, they tell me that within three days i will have a fedex box with shipping materials and that it will be free of cost

-so 2-3 weeks have gone by and im on the phone with them right now, with a case number that now apperantly doesn't exist and they are asking for 541.38usd to repair the laptop.

Cliffs*Hp go die like GM just without the goverment subsidization

DV2000/6000/9000? I've heard the TX1000s are bad also. We repair a TON of them.

I'm typing this from a HP laptop, it's been running well for the last 3 years. It's never moved from this spot, but, it's still going...

I`m on a paviolion ze4900 right now, when it overheats it locks up. It is bad ***. When the display backlighting went out I had to replace the bulb - not a simple task.
