First off they ripped me off at the Source...closest place to get a laptop and I was desperate....didn't receive all the goodies as promised, so BAD service from the store. Only part of the rebates came...false advertising! After only having the laptop for about a month I couldn't get it to power up. It needed about a month vacation before it would work again. Then the trial versions expired which threw the computer into more hissy fits and made it unuseable till it settled down again. Then on May 11th the CD/DVD driver somehow erased itself while I was playing a CD.....not to be found anywhere by a technician.....Like the author of this article, I can't be with out a computer while they fix it....so I continue to moan and suffer...then there is the problem of the dancing curser.....it randomly jumps all over the screen....or the NO ACTION stuck mode ball...on MAC, the disco ball.....Wordperfect with Vista...hasn't WP been obsolette since about '98? POS to say the least....My new MAC will be coming home soon. Thanks for the rant and it is good to know that I am not alone with these computer problems.

Someone has found a use for the insert key! hate to kill the punchline, so to speak, but i've found a use for it. When you type a word thats supposed to be in capitals, and you want to change it, you go to the start, hit insert, and type it again. Although, thats a pretty crappy use. I mean, why not just have a "capitals/lowercase" button? BREAKING NEWS!!

Must you always convince people that you are right.

If it is a completely different house with a fence, then how can you convince us it’s the exact same house?

“…and they added on a porch and painted, and remodeled the entryway…”
