This is my first ever commercial type laptop that endured extreme punishment from my daughters and not to mention the years of service it provided me on daily basis being a programmer and computer technician who use it for troubleshooting other computers. It had withstand numerous virus attack and gone to many places in the field. This laptop had travelled thousands of kilometers by plane but never sustained major breakdown under my care only after when I left it to my daughters. Took it back and surprisingly repaired by just replacing the harddisk. See for yourself how bad the condition it was. Note that HP is not paying me a cent in revealing the durability of this obsolete model. 

OLD HARDDISK - DEFECTIVE

 NEW HARDDISK - INSTALLED
