I bought a new HP computer at Staples, and recently started into
creating a set of rescue disks. It was mystifying. I resorted to
Newsgroups and here. Last night, I Googled HP and noticed a chat. I
tried it. It was busted. I noticed something about contact them for
support. I called. I found out I had a year of free support any time.
I have no recollection of Staples telling me anything about this, other
than I had a year of parts replacement. Today I went over and looked at
their PCs, and found none mentioned free HP support, but did offer, for
a price, their care. BTW, I did dig out a support phone number (I don't
think they mentioned free) from HP's minimal getting started booklet,
which seems very h/w oriented. HP answered my questions satisfactorily.
So to me this looks like Staples as less than honest about what one gets
with computers bought there.
