Title: F1703 HP Monitor
Review: The April 2008 review is either an after-the-fact HP plant (or the person is confused).The hp pavilion f1703 (sic) that the people are reviewing here is a monitor; not a computer; and it is indeed awful. After owning a flatscreen from a different vendor (and being impressed with it); I added the HP f1703 in 2005.I was shocked to encounter a: the screen blacking out issue reported by many, and b: the same poor, denying culpability, HP support. After many calls, I *finally* got through to the one :-) HP person that understood.I was able to trade the Brand New f1703 that I had purchased, for a used, refurbished one, from someone else; that included a few (annoyingly placed) dead pixels upon arrival.I recommend hardware to customers.The f1703; dead IPAQs; and a huge 4500n color laser that came dead on arrival has caused me not to recommend HP at all in 4 years. I used to be a big HP proponent, before seeing their quality fall off a lot after 2000.
Is the review positive or negative?
