I have always had good luck with Compaq laptops. My mother recently got the x1000 model, and it's REALLY NICE. It falls into the budget I'm looking for and has all the options we need, too.

Now, our vendor apparently can only get the equivalent HP laptop - although bigger hard drive, and a bigger price.

I'm not sure about HP laptops, but I really had my eye on those Compaq laptops. Should I be open to the HP's or hold out for the Compaqs?
Really now, is there ANY difference?
Are you really limited in choice to one or the other?
