Malware threat from third-party cartridges nothing compared to threat to HP's bottom line

    Buying HP products is bad investment.

    I only had the chance to two of their inkjet printers and one of their office laser printers, plus an elitebook laptop. In short, all of them suck.

    Much better (to me, the best) alternatives, that I can safely say are good investments: Canon for inkjet printers, ThinkPad T and P series for laptops. Those are quality products. Unfortunately I don’t have any experience with other office laser printers, so I cannot recommend one.

    Edit: specified which series of ThankPads are still good.

      ThinkPad is now Lenovo just FYI. They were acquired some years ago and now Lenovo makes and sells the ThinkPad line of hardware

          Yeah, Lenovo has owned ThinkPad for ≈ 6 more years than IBM ever did.

        I know. Still, that’s the best hardware out there for laptops. I have to add though, only the T and P series are worth buying, the rest are trash.

          Not anymore. Even those are garbage in the last 5ish years.

          Shit build quality and barely repairable

          Stay away from modern thinkpads
