HP printers try to send data back to HP about your devices and what you print

HP went down the shitter as far as I was concerned when “the HP way” went. This happened when they spun off Agilent which took it with them.

I have actually physically assaulted several HP products since then. Literally nothing but aggro.

All the agilent test equipment I've worked with is still solid AF. It's sad HP consumer stuff, particularly ink jet printers, is cheap junk. Enterprise stuff is fine though

Yeah same. I just bought a new display for my 20 year old 34401A! That’s service.

Enterprise. Not so good. Arguing with Broadcom NICs and blade chassis switch problems for a decade and a half makes me happy about AWS.
