They do come out with good hardware now and then.
Some of their higher end laser printers are reviewed well. At my job we have an HP laser printer that is older than the store that is still chugging along just fine while being used every day.
Their overall quality is so poor though that it is hard to trust anything they put out.
Their old laser printers were absolute beasts. I was using one with a centronics connector (attached to a network adapter I refurbished) after it had a full life in a school computer lab up until 2012 when the movers broke it.

More consumer linux devices are good though.
