I am typing this from a HP PC at home, so this news is rather surprising to me. If Acer does end up buying HP's personal computer business, it will be the last HP I ever own. I had a horrible experience with a Gateway PC that I purchased about 18 months ago, leading me to return to HP, where I've had much better luck. I've also had a workhorse HP laser printer for many years, but like Carlo, I have avoided their ink jet printers like the plague due to their ridiculous cartridge costs. I guess my next home PC will have to be from Dell -- assuming they stick around.
