Laptop Warranty.. I don't get this..?

Ok, so I have a Compaq Laptop Model: Presario C700 Notebook PC I still have a 1-year Warranty on it, and I am currently trying to Replace my Battery on it. The part I don't get is that, my computer is a Compaq, but how come when I click on "HP Total Care Advisor" on my Laptop, then click on the Warranty, it brings me to this "HP" site. I just don't get the fact that my Laptop is a Compaq, but how come the Warranty is dealing with HP? The nearest HP Service Partner by me is Best Buy, so I am wondering if.. I bring my "Compaq" laptop for them to get a replacement on a new battery, would my Warranty still cover?

1. HP and Compaq are the same company. They merged a few years ago.
2. Compaq is owned by HP so there shouldn't be a problem if you bring it to the best buy
3. As the other have said, HP and Compaq are the same company. Your warranty is still good.
4. Usually batteries are not covered at all. Call customer service and ask if your warranty covers it.
