Especially at HP. In recent decades it's gone from one of the most respected companies on the planet to bottom of the dog pile.

Never ever again would I buy HP equipment.

The HP brand should have stayed with their test and measurement division (now Keysight), rather than being diluted by slapping it on crappy printers and PCs.

Exactly. And from recent news HP has just 'bobbytrapped' those crappy printers in that third-party inks will no longer work.

Resorting to such low tactics is a sign of desperation.

Edit: I still have a HP LJ-III and it still works. My-my, how HP has gone downhill since then.
