Rome is Burning (Again)

Just wanted to leave a quick note that my HP laptop has been on the fritz and my Toshiba tablet has been saying 'I'm not in the mood'. Sorry for the infrequency of posts lately.

Here's a fun one: Have you ever seen a man driving a mini-van with a smile on his face?

My sympathies Kyle. My toshiba tablet has been described as (1) having a mind of its own (2) an extended warranty's best customer and (3) having been repaired so many times that there is not one original part left. I'm now running XP on a Mac using Parallels and knock on wood have been trouble free ever since. Good luck on your machine!

Well I got lucky, my dv9000 got broken too, they took
3 weeks to repair it and I am using it no.

As a comsumer of HP products, I am frustrated at the lack of concerns or support for their loyal customers. I have three (3) HP PCs, two (2) laptops, and two (2) printers plus other products.

I have recently purchased a top of the line HP Touchsmart PC. What a piece of junk; I do not know if its the other piece crap software by Microsoft VISTA 64 bit operating system, or another combination.

I had to go out and buy new equipment, ie printers, scanners etc. Except this time I bought other competitors' products. Also, all my software had to be upgraded. Plus most of software companies do not support VISTA 64 bit. I feel like I have been robbed. What other industry gets away with forming a monoloply that allows defective junk software out on the market and then charges you for upgrades to patch thier problems?

All I get is freeze ups. Does not matter what type of simple operations I perform, it takes forever to respond, or I get a complete freezing of the system and I have to reboot to solve the problem.

I have the best possible virus protection program so I know its not a virus.

I have contacted the technical service at HP from India and it's almost like speaking to someone on the moon. They blame VISTA for the problem and I ask them why did they load the system with it, knowing there were problems.

From this point forward I am only going to purchase Apple products. Goodbye Microsoft and HP, I hope you go the way of the dinosaur.
