HP by a long shot. Dell has had some very serious problems with their customer (dis)service recently.
When you are ready to buy a new system, go to www.stupidcheapcomputers.net. I buy all of my stuff from them, and everything is Vista ready.
Microsoft is about to release its latest operating system, Vista, in January. It’s going to make all of these “bargain” computers nothing but JUNK as soon as it’s released. The reason that you are seeing so many cheap systems on the market right now is because a lot of them CAN’T RUN Vista and the merchants are trying to dump them as hard and fast as they can before Vista shows up and everyone learns what a piece of crap they were sold for $500 (or whatever).
Anyway, I bought a complete, new system from stupidcheapcomputers.net with a warranty for LESS than it would cost me to build it myself or order a custom one from the manufacturer. You can use my frequent buyer code: ATX926. That will get an additional 10% discount at checkout.
I have NEVER had any problems with anything that they have sold me and their customer service is outstanding. Those guys blow my mind.
Good luck!

HP has much better quality. Dell is just cheaper.

Neither, but the vary fact that you are asking this means that you want a computer that is self sufficient and will not be updating or rebuilding. In that case, i would go for Dell

I have a HP desktop, and a laptop, and I'm very happy with both.

I think you would be happy with either, but I prefer the HP because they have Lightscribe.

to tell you the truth they are about the same, they both offer Intell or AMD and are basically the same other than the case and the name on the front of it

Pretty much the same in my opinion.
