HP says I should have known its £399 laptop bargain was too good to be true

[...] Parcelforce texted the delivery slot. No delivery. Parcelforce and HP’s tracking systems then claimed I had refused the parcel. I scheduled a redelivery for the next day. Parcelforce then rang me and the agent acknowledged a delivery had not been attempted and that the tracking information was false. It claimed HP had requested that the parcel be returned to sender.

dell is better

latitude e5470

Does comparing a corporate machine with a bargain basement consumer system seen reasonable to you? You think Dell is above this type of incompetence? My sweet summer shill.

They're both shit companies - I sold HP systems for years, and was a brand marketing manager for most of Dell's products at one time or another.

I just switched from an e5470 to a 5420. I miss i8k, but welcome USB-C (and the faster speed so compiling AUR packages doesn't suck anymore).

And as someone that used various Dell systems for some time now: The only annoying part is the missing drivers for Linux.
