Sampled from what year to what year exactly ? It says nowhere in this article ...

For the last year and a half, HP has been quite good for us and Acer has been absolute shit for at least the last 2 years and they're only getting worse ...

I also have difficulty believing Toshiba is that high given their terrible reliability record for 2008, though they seem to have gotten back on track for 2009.

The only reason I could see HP being that high is they're one of the few companies that sell refurbs, which generally have higher defect rates than new laptops.
