      I’m in IT. I get cold called by VAR trying to sell me HPE here and there. I tell them straight up I won’t buy HP cause of their business practices.

        It’s my understanding their enterprise products are still good. It’s the consumer products which suck

      I don’t think that’s fair. Plenty of people in this world do not know much about computers or the internet or anything in that area and just need a printer. So they go to their local big box store and there’s the HP printers and they’re a good deal, so they buy them.

      Consumers do not get what they deserve when companies treat them like shit just because they don’t have certain knowledge.
