Robert, I have an eTower 400i and after 10 months the power supply failed. The courteous technician did some phone analysis and decided to send me a new power supply. All's OK now. But I had several terrible experiences with my Compaq and would never buy that brand again.

Even though I realize that my sample size is way too small,
I have trouble overcoming the prejudice caused by my own experiences. :)

I'm suggesting that horror stories exist for any brand.
Does anyone know of a frequency of repair report for computers, like Consumer Reports does for cars?
