DELL or HP Which one is Better?

Hp is better but Dell is cheaper than Hp and the customization was for better for me. I tried to compare these two when I was buying a laptop last week. In other forums people said Hp is better than dell and the results also show that HP has the biggest share in the market right now.
But I ended up buying a dell coz I got this laptop for $1250 inc. tax and shipping and Handling:

Dell Inspiron 1520, Intel Core 2 Duo T7300, 2.0GHz, 800Mhz, 4M Cachew/ Vista Premium
2 Gb Ram
160 Gb HD
256 NVidia Get Force 8600M Gt video card ( This wasn't available for Hp ..My Main reason for buying Dell $200 alone)
Bluetooth and so on.

Eagering waiting for its arrival...

 

I personally prefer Dell.

 

Yes, me too. I prefer dell.

 

HP is better....i HEARD. Much more solid.

 

I fell like i am pressing buttons on a 40tonne tank.

That is how solid this laptop feels and looks (HP Pavilion dv5046EA).

 

Overall, I prefer Dells. They're a lot cheaper and the ones that I've owned have been very good.

 

Yep i hate dell i vote HP by miles :d

Also HP has alot of good reviews and is never faulty (for me) plus they have alot of serivce centres accross the world which is another advantage.

 

hp rocks at my country!

 

I have/had a Dell laptop. I say had because it is so outdated now. However, it has been extremely reliable. My wife still uses it on occasion to surf the web and do some accounting stuff. I've been thinking about getting a new Dell XPS laptop myself. Unfortunately I can't tell you how great the HP laptops are though as I've never had one.

 

I also hate dell, this is why:

Dell Sues Dell (1)
Dell sues cybersquatters (typos)
Dell sues person because of this name!

Here is HP's:

HP sues over grey market sales
Hp sues printer cartride resellers claiming violation of patent.
Another patent clash with acer this time!


HP is suing big company's, dell is suing ordinary people. I can understand Hp protecting its patents, but suing a single person is just unfair.
