Opinion: HP's printer business practices have infuriated users for years.
What's worse: reviled or detested?

What's worse: ignorance or indifference? I don't know and I don't care.

Not me, never used it voluntarily... and when forced, I wasn't paying for them and had support.
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I had an HP InkJet printer about thirty years ago, but that's it. I spent more on ink for cleaning than on actual printing, and eventually the nozzles got completely gummed up. No more InkJets for me! OTOH, their ProBook line of laptops is OK - reasonably sturdy, not too heavy, and do everything that I need them to do.

I have a Z-Book at work and yes, they are fine. But I had a friend with an normal HP Laptop and it refused to boot up from other CDs that were not the HP Recovery they delivered in the box, what for me is a no go.

read the article, I feel the user pain, HP? As braindead as MS - focused on milking customers with dubious claims then locking you in. The comments are the most hilarious, here is my favorite: "I was briefly excited before I read the article and discovered it was just marketing people huffing their own farts again." Dear marketing and CFO types - if customers say this about what you are doing, you are doing it wrong. I think I will go pet my Brother laser printer now.
