I had this laptop in my possession for four days -- just long enough to spend hours and hours and hours on the conversion from my old laptop. And that's when the hard-drive blew up. HP told me they could repair it and return it to me within three weeks of the time that they receive it. Then I guess I could take the chance that their quality would be better the second time around, and I could re-invest hours and hours on the repaired version. No thanks. I have work to do.
