I agree, but we're talking about laptops here.

I have a thing against HP, Compact, and Gateway. Personal preference, along with being asked to work on those systems have given me nothing but hell. HP and Compact are cheaply made and have huge overheating problems in my mind.

Well if he were buying a desktop I'd never advise a HP or compaq. They suck. But HP/Compaq doesn't actually MAKE their laptops -they just rebadge them. Inventec and Compal make the laptops that HP/Compaq sells. FYI Compal also makes Dell laptops.
Clevo/Kapok makes Alienware laptops - Alienware just specs a unique case. They also make Sager laptops, which are identical to Alienware except for that unique case, and also much cheaper.
