Comparison between toshiba and compaq

You'll get many different answers to this question, but from my view Toshiba is better in terms of longterm reliability. I've had 3 HP/Compaq laptops and all of which died within a year or so. Currently have a Toshiba and no complaints thus far. I believe there was just a study released on the subject as well.

toshiba all the way. stay away from hp/compaq. I work at the "Laptop Shop" repairing laptops all day. I def see more common stupid / bad craftsmanship in the hp's/compaq's. like snapped hinges which break all the plastic stand-offs off the lcd back panel, bad dc-jack's, and faulty gpu's which lead to total system failure. I'd recommend an ASUS laptop over anything. They have the best laptop for the money in my opinion. They've been the number one top reliable laptop for a while now
