-- Posted by aisling1991 at 7:36 am on June 12, 2008 I recently updated my memory on my HP laptop and my brother has one too...I noticed that we had different makes of memory even though it was the same size etc...HP obviously just get their parts from china...I find that disappointing that HP use different makes for their computers lol -- Posted by boombabyy at 7:37 am on June 12, 2008 Yeh, thats why I go for mac lol -- Posted by Latin Muscle at 7:39 am on June 12, 2008 LOL -- Posted by jamescoleman at 7:49 am on June 12, 2008 even though its different makes it'll still work but that isn't good though. i hope my hp doesn't have different makers of ram.... -- Posted by michaelb15 at 3:42 pm on June 12, 2008 k hp is a very bad company imho, I think they should stick to making printers if you really want a computer that is fairly inexpensive, yet really good, go to staples and build up a rig.. once you have a rig, just keep updating it.. its sooo much cheaper then buying through HP, because HP usually has software preventing easily updating hardware.. to update my buddies videocard I had to swap motherboards cause the HP BIOS just didnt have what it took.. -- Posted by Dumbledor123 at 7:29 am on June 13, 2008 They use different makes because it will all do the same thing.
