Not many choices. Forgot Dell. What about custom built? hehe

I chose HP out of the choices though...

Acer looks like an Asian man pooped out a turd and wrote "acer" on it...

Not much of a selection on here, but I have picked eMachines strictly because I have not had a problem with them, and HP mainly for the same reason as the eMachines. However, if Dell and/or custom built was a selection there, I definitely would have picked those.

Most people like to build there own, but id like to see out of that list what people like. I hate dell.. Never had good luck with them.

Isn't Compaq/HP one company now?

HP acquired Compaq however they are still sold under separate names.

But as to the poll, most of those brands aren't very good. Basically low-end systems. But it does depends on weather their desktops or laptops.

I think that Dell would be a much better if you had to go with a prebuilt. They have some really nice deals going on right now.

But I would almost always build one myself for a desktop.

Well, Compaq totally sucks monkey balls.
Gateway is really good. I've never had any issues with them - I've owned two of their PC's (Gateway 2000 & Gateway E-4100)
I've heard good reviews on Acer and HP, but have never personally used or owned one.

eMachines offer some pretty good builds (speed and capacity wise) for the money, but I don't like their cheap parts.

In 2000, I got a Hewlett Packard 7810(UK), it was in main use 24/7 till July 2005 (with the odd shut off, when we moved to the USA), and to put it short, its still in use today. The only thing which failed was the HDD. It was also upgraded to 512MB RAM in 2000. Everything else is what it came with, even 8 year old, cables. It is such a fantastic PC, I wish build qualities of brand new PCs were the same :(
