    Angry Dear Hewlett Packard

    Thank for all the good bits and boards you put in your printers, but.....

    Seriously wtf is with the way you put your printers together? Ok fine you like to use Torx bits, I'm fine with that, but do you need to put those 3 star head in there too just to slow me down? And while were on the subject of screws do you really need to hide them all under snap on covers? And how you got half of them in there is beyond me. You must employ every double jointed pigmy gymnast on the planet.



    I can tear through printers with the best of them, but run into 2 HP's in a row and I need to smoke.

    Fire a bunch of those design engineers and maybe you wont need to sell off any more divisions just to make payroll.

    /rant off

    I get more aggravated with having to change out tools because of different sized screws and bolts. I'm sure there's great reasons for the variety, but consistency saves time.

    I would like to know why they have to put 8 screws a board thats 2" by 2". I could save them alot of money by cutting the number of screws in half. Just my 2 cents.

    i didn't even try to get to the boards on those little ones, doubt they'll buy them around here anyway, and they're not worth enough to ship. I was just trying to get the ink cartridges out
