Either help me out or shoot me.

Now where did I put my gun?

OOOPS, sorry gull, I forgot to give it back.

Did you try a new battery?

you can borrow mine, it is hanging in the back window of my car...

My laptop went into a vegetative state this evening--gray screen, won't boot up.

I called the 800 number, and they told me to go online. Do those bat-turds assume that I have a crappy PC to back up my laptop? (If so, they're right, but that's beside the point.)

Thank GAWD I had already emailed the work I had done to myself. (I have a frickin' recital hearing tomorrow, which requires extensive, quadruple-edited, footnoted program notes.)

SWGB, your box of chocolate is in peril right now. Or maybe I'll go straight for the Xanax.

my laptop is dead as well so I borrowed my sisters from the Estate now it wont work without eletricity. My other desktop is so messed up Cork cant help... I have such a love/hate relationship with these things...

Give me my dam* gun, I need to put some people out of their misery!

That's what I hear.....and it perches on the antler rack. ;-)

Batt'ry works.

3 bullets: one for the laptop, one for the manufacturer, one for me...

I'm glad the gulls got past the issue of chocolate in peril. That's just not funny. I've been looking forward to that chocolate.

No chocolate = byatchy swgb.

Chocolate is still safe, but it was touch and go. Laptop is about to be discovered in a pool of its own blood.:angry:

I'm in my office with the offending laptop right now, and I have a whole box of Valentine's chocolate.

I spent my entire planning period on hold. Never mind that I have a recital hearing in an hour--I'm playing with this @#$! computer!

nohall - bless your heart. sending up prayers.

A moment of silence, please, for my dead hard drive

at least it's under warranty, and they're sending someone to pick it up so I can get a hard drive transplant.
(If this ain't a commercial for buying an extended warranty, I don't know what is.)

You do realize that while the new hard drive will be the same in every way, the contents will have shifted to lala land?

Yes, but all my school stuff is saved in hard copies, thumb drive, my dinosaur PC and in 2 email accounts. My pictures are either in photobucket, on my old computer, or still in the camera. iTunes stuff will be a pain to restore, but it's stuff off CDs, not bought from the iTunes store. My calendar will be wiped, but I have that on paper or in my cute little noggin'. I'll have to get BB to re-send the pictures of my fiance... (Actually, the best pic of him is on my computer at work! )

One of the great truths in life is that computers crash. Back it up or kiss it goodbye.

As long as the chocolate is okay.

Indeed! Can't wait to pass it off to you...

I'm starting to think I'm getting a little to worked up over this chocolate. That or the giants bowls of discount VD candy at work.

No such thing!

Is it a Toshiba?

Is it a Toshiba?

No--I hate to identify it because I really have LOVED it. It's fast, virus-free, easy to use, lightweight, and has a name that reminds me of both the Garden of Eden and Ronald McDonald...

And I gotta say that once you get a-hold of customer service, they are incredible. I've heard stories of people getting routed to India with Dell's customer service. I had to hang up earlier today before we identified the problem because I had to go teach a class, but my little customer service dude sent me 3 detailed emails trying to fix my computer. In trying to get it fixed, I was sent to 5 different people. All of them were courteous and helpful. I would buy another Mac in a heartbeat. (But I won't have to...)

I am converting to a Macbook in a few weeks I think. My 6 mo. old PC is barely operable. Glad to hear from a credible source (you).
