Recognition where recognition deserved.

The HP help line has once again proven themselves to be actually helpful. My first laptop was a HP and in order to go on line I had to gear the modem down. (okay that's not technically what I had to do but essentially I was trying to drive a sports car on a goat track and had to get it into a lower gear) The nice young man at the HP help line

Vista is the tool of Shaitan, and shall swallow your soul.

It does come with majong preloaded and I'm sure there must be something else that's good about it...

Life would be so much easier if we had a Fixiamus spell.

I have to say that in the three months I've had my new laptop (an Acer), I haven't really had any problems with Vista except in getting it networked with my XP desktop. My desktop is just one cobbled together. It's got an HP CD burner in it (bastardised from my old HP computer), an LG DVD burner (used to be in an external enclosure). I needed to get a new hard drive as the old one finally did itself in. Maxtor hard drives and I don't seem to get along. At the moment it's got a Western Digital one in there.

I've got an external ComCast 250GB hard drive that's mostly full of downloaded shows (incl. Blood Ties & Battlestar Galactica (the latter because I had to do something to watch season 3 until the dvds came out MONTHS later - they arrived yesterday. I do love my new Acer laptop. Lots more memory and speed than my previous Toshiba laptop. A whole 'nuther long debacle, best saved for another time.

On another note, I was looking over our booklist that our resident librarian has done up for our club's online newsletter's booklist

Blood Bank is the collected short stories from the third omnibus plus the shooting script for Stone Cold, plus my blog about writing the script. So, if you have the omnibus and you read here, you don't really need Blood Bank. Although if you want it anyway, that's okay too. *g*

I've had nothing but good experiences with the HP support people!

Wow, a helpful helpline...let's mark the day red. I usually get told to send the bloody thing in and end up having to call my tech over *rolls eyes*

And I'm always amazed how the updates manage to delete something. It just doesn't make sense at all.

Cookies for Anne at the helpline.

Hmmm, send it in... you've got a Dell? That seems to be their response.

[ivysoul]

No, actually an Asus. It seems they don't trust me to do anything right with their instructions...or maybe they're absolutely fucking clueless themselves.
