I've known about it for a few days. I've survived many rounds of cuts and layoffs in the last 15 years, including one 2 months ago (local, not global like this one).
This is an attempt to recover from what the former CEO tried to do to the company. I respect our new CEO for the tough decisions he needs to make.
I am protected in this round. No worries.

I'd say IBM > Dell > HP. Especially when it comes to laptops.
You can't even build your own computer so leave him alone.

IBM is out of the pc hardware market now. There will still be thinkpads, but branded under Levino. Watch the next commercial and it will not say IBM. IBM will be Levino'* largest customer though.
As for personal hardware, I build my own. I currently have seven drives in my LanLi brushed alum case equaling 1 terabyte.

I love my HP Deskjet 812C printer. Six years old, it'* slow, but print quality still rivals that of brand-new printers. I really don't dig any of HP'* digital cameras though, too low-end for me.
This September, I'll be leasing-to-own an IBM Thinkpad R51 from school.
Pentium M 725 (1.6Ghz) Built-in 56K V.92 modem
512 MB RAM (1DIMM) Built-in Intel PRO/Wireless 2200 b/g
60 GB HDD 2 USB 2.0 ports
14.1" TFT Display Parellel port, *-video port
32 MB ATI Mobility RADEON 9000 video chipset Audio In/Out port
CD-RW/DVD Combo Drive (24x24x24x8x) TrackPoint and TouchPad
Built-in 10/100/1000 Network Card Firewire
