I placed a small order for about two-something dollars with HP -- The cheapest price I could find. My order was promptly processed within two days despite the fact that it was backordered.  
 
The shipping, even for this small purchase, was free and HP contacted me through e-mail with a tracking number as soon as they could toward the the end.  
 
I'm happy that HP takes me as a customer responsibly and proves to me that they do business with their customers in a timely manner.

Had some trouble with the initial order, but it was quickly taken care of. They bent over backwards to help me.

Decent price, Fast shipment (that also came with free SH)

I bouht hewlett packard laserjet 4250 printer. It was great and still love it. Fast delivery and no hastle.... thanks HP!

Ordered DL585 server with custom configuration. It was put on back order for a month due to supply shortages. Server arrived in excellent condition. Customer support was very curtious and easy to work with.

Bought a Pavilion ZT3000 laptop. Ordering experience was great. Shipping was good. Not having any problems with my laptop.  
 
Built well, runs smooth. Great features.  
 
A note to anyone who buys a computer from any company:  
 
Computers tend to screw up when applications, programs, hardware or other things are installed in them. They can screw up when you remove a program.  
 
The best way I've found to keep a computer running good is to buy a decent utilities program and use every so often. I use Norton Systemworks - it isn't the absolute best but it keeps my PCs faultless. It'll scan the computer for Windows problems and fix them. It'll keep the HD in good condition, too. I never have a failure. Before I got wise to Windows fixers I've had problems of the computer freezing, shutting down, running snail slow, crasing and various other problems.  
 
Since installing a decent utilities program using my computers is a reliable and consistently routine and trouble-free daily experience.  
 
There are a lot of decent computer makers that, I believe, get bad ratings because computers tend to screw-up no matter how well they're made or who makes them.  
 
Granted, there are issues of hardware quality, stay away from such computer makers because a utilities program won't help such a situation.  
 
My first PC is an Emachines. Paid a whopping $400 for it. About 2 years ago - I've had it for more than 3 years - I installed Norton. It still run and work great. Utility programs won't cure everything but they do keep the day-to-day operation of a PC trouble free.

Bought a great HP ze4315us notebook computer at Best Buy for the unbelievable net price of $750. Great AMD Athlon 1800+ processor, ATI graphics, 256 Meg Ram, 30 GB HDD, with Win XP and a DVD/CDR-W, and a bright 15" display and 4+ hours of battery life. I love it, and have had no problems at all in the 9 months I've had it. It even came with a coupon for a free USB floppy drive if you ordered it from the HP web site, which I received promptly.  
The mail-in rebates are a pain, but they all arrived promptly, and since I bought it with no cash down and no interest for 12 mo. for a while I had extra ready cash. Paid it off already with no problem.  
Last Spring I believe HP decided to be really competitive against Dell, and is the reason for my great deal. It's far better than anything comparable I've seen from Dell and a much better price. Before you buy over the phone, check out Best Buy.  
PS - My next computer will be an AMD64, so I'll be able to handle Win'64 and the power gaming software coming out this year. Don't buy an obsolete 32-bit Athlon or Pentium 4.

I got a Pavilion a230n and it's my 3rd computer and it's the fastest I've ever had. Smoke the computer I built myself, has dvd burner, 120gb harddrive,512 ram, great sound, sadly does have integrated geforce 4 mx graphics but it's not that bad at all. I got this on da cheap only $700+ tax at circuit city a very goooood deal.

I have been purchasing HP Products Exclusively since Oct. 1999 when I got my first HP Printer... a few months later a Pavilion... then lots more, a couple Cameras, more and more printers, another Pavilion, scanners, and of course lots of CDRWs internal and external.  
 
I only own HP Products, and haven't had any trouble with any of them, except for my own doings, but they get fixed.  
 
The ONLY downside is not having a toll free support number, however, this must save them Millions, but if you ever need them, which is RARE if you are familiar with PCs, then its your phone bill... however they pick up QUICKLY and don't keep you long.  
 
HP recently received my order for a HP 720 Photosmart Camera, HP 7350 Photosmart Printer, and HP 3500C Scanner. All work GREAT!

Well.... I ordered a Pavilion 734n because of its speedy Athlon XP 2400 (ITs' true I am a overclocking freak) 512 MB, 80 Gb HD, and To Top it of with a NVIDIA GEFORCE 4 MX 420 AGP CARD!!! These companies usaully dont give u a graphic card, but this is one of the first time and only for $800. I cant wait untill it comes, HECK I'll write my Update from my new Machine. wish me Luck ;)

Very reliable seller and product, however, ordering off the website is somewhat inconvenient.
