well, I'm not a computer repairman so I have no clue as to the incidence rate for Compaq machines...but from having paid attention to the statements of those who are, I stand by my words about current HDDs being cr@p as compared to ones made about 4 years ago...

as far as your thoughts about this happening to a new machine..well, the best example I can give is a anecdotal comparison with my truck which is about 6 months old now...the check engine light came on before it reached 500 miles and I had to take it in for warranty work...I wanted to anyways because of a couple of other issues (like the headlights were set to point down which made driving at night on a windy, deer infested road a nightmare) anyways, but c'mon, the check engine light @ 430 miles????, sheeshus...

The_Point being sh!t happens (especially it seems in the current economic state of make as many as you can for the lowest cost and the highest profit margin)
