tomwestbrook's Full Review: Hewlett Packard Pavilion Ze5385us (DC965A#ABA) PC ...
I bought for about $1500. After about 3 weeks the hard drive died. Took SIX WEEKS to get a replacement. Now after a year the internal wireless adapter is dying--it flakes out every so often and I have to cycle the driver to get it working again.

Do yourself a favor and buy something from another company, as it's obvious from this POC that HP isn't very serious about quality control. Dells are nice and I have a 4 year old Gateway that's still running fine use it as a file server-too slow for modern apps.

It also runs too hat, esp after two of the fans have died. The thing is falling apart after only a year. It's crap.
