Is HP good quality in a laptop? Another brand better?

The last company I worked for had about 5K HP units and they were very reliable. I was part of IT and never had major issue even when thing went wrong the company backed up their hardware very well.

I realize that comparing this monster to a netbook (which I have and love) is absurd...but other than the obvious differences, a serious question for me is what battery life with 18" is like. After getting 4-5 hours on my current and former laptops, estimates for 2.5 hours seem worthless.

I read some of the reviews on this laptop and a few recommended skipping the 64 bit. Too many problems with it and use of some programs. Any recommendations regarding this on here?
Laptop does rate 4.6 out of 5 stars on HP's site.

This is a great desktop replacement and order it if you need it now. Otherwise, wait for Windows 7 release which will perform much better based on the current hardware configuration. Hopefully, we may see touch screen feature applied to this too.

I just set up a similarly configured Dell Studio 17 with similar but slightly inferior specs for $1794 Shipped and the HP for around $1100 shipped including Tax on both scenarios. P8700(Dual Core, 2.53GHz), 4 Gig DDR2, finger print, blue tooth, 500 gig HD, wireless N, backlit keyboard, large battery, webcam, media reader, etc, etc...My trigger finger is mighty itchy on this one.
