Packard Bell had a reputation for making computers
with pulled and otherwise used parts. They had a seemingly high failure rate.
However, recently NEC bought out Packard Bell and the quality and support improved
drastically. I, who would never buy one, bought one for my wife's CAD business.
That's what I'm using at the time. No Complaints...
I totally forgot about the buyout! That explians a lot of why PB's are more industry
standard than they used to be.
