A Compaq ??

Problem found !

Compaq is junk ...
Not because I say so but because their tech staff is overburdened and they try to ship refurbished equipment .

Ever tried taking a screwdriver and opening up the case ?
You might be surprised ...

If you don't believe me go here and be convinced : http://www.compaqsucks.com/

Works for me. That anger thing ..... is that Actors' Workshop, or just a personality flaw? I have never had any insurrmountable problems with my system, and, like a faithful girlfriend, I'm staying where I'm happy. Go to the gym, you need to work out your testosterone levels. Have a nice weekend.

To borrow from Jeremy Irons as Klaus von Bulow (you do get movies across the pond, n'est-ce pas?), "Oh, you have no idea." Have a winter's weekend, lambchop. Compaq rocks. I'm waiting for my iPaq. Don't knock 'til you've tried it.

Lightbulb i did try Compaq

Then damn puter was only a day old when this happened :

Had to get a fire exstingher because the damn monitor blew up .
And the ****s won't even refund me because , listen to this : I hosed the monitor down with a fire exstingher .
Finally i said I would sue them and i promptly got a refund .
Afterwards I found it it was a refurbish monitor .
Refurbished equipment for a +2000 bucks system ??

There's this little credo that goes, "Caveat emptor" (or, let the buyer beware). Works for me *almost* always. Sorry about your lousy equipment, if they represented it as new, they owe you a new system. I feel like Asa Arons on WNBC in NYC -- he's the consumer complaint guru. One more credo: "You get what you pay for." Word.
