	Well, I haven't dealt with Compaq, I'm fairly certain, since it got  
bought out oh so many years ago. My experience with HP has been with  
their HP line of computers, some from before they bought Compaq, some  
after. Mostly consumer stuff. I've also had major problems with their  
printer support team.
