I used to work with a lot of HP’s industrial printers. The automated maintenance routines always take so damn long, and they break all the time. We always said HP stands for Have Patience.

Nah… My office does, and then pays a vendor to handle the issues (I work in IT, fixing those problems is literally my job) and they still cheap out on knock off toner (some of which works). It makes me sad…

The last time we tried using them, the computer came with Windows 98…
They were horrible back then, not really sure how they are still in business.

Made the mistake of buying a HP “gaming laptop.” The goddamn thing chugs if you have five browser tabs open.

Yeah, the problem is that they’re anti-consumer.
