HP valued brand?Who told you that?They are as bad as Acer.Their post sales service is the worst in India.
Dude, firstly Acer is a true VFM brand IMO, obviously its not for a "no budget limit guy". And HP is in totally different league. I do agree HP's brand reputation especialy in India has fallen in recent times, but still its a good brand. Post sales service of HP is not directly handled by them AFAIK, obviuosly they need to improve it if compared to arch rivals like Dell, Vaio, etc. but this alone doesn't counts all and you just can't say they are bad brand. Do have some logical reasoning. Plus i have very good experience with HP (personal experience).
Plus have alook at this.
