It seems as though HPQ is doing very well, selling 120K more computers than Dell. When they sucked up Compaq, it was for the better.
One thing I have noticed, if your buying a second or third (etc) PC, you may want to look for some great deals by these companies. IMO of course.

Hewlett-Packard, meanwhile, took back the unit shipment lead from Dell Computer by shipping 120,000 more computers than Dell in the fourth quarter. HP's surge largely came as the result of strong consumer sales and aggressive price cutting, said Jim McDonnell, vice president of marketing in the personal systems group at HP. The fourth quarter is traditionally a more consumer-oriented quarter.
