I just bought a new laptop because my Toshiba/ Vista is away for repair. I have now found out that some of my software doesn’t work. Also Toshiba with whom I have an extended warranty with has had my laptop for 4 months now, first they said it needed a new mother board, then they couldn’t get one and would give me market value for mine, so I told them what I thought of them. I get the feeling that the mother board is an expensive item and it’s cheaper to pay the market value than mend it They then offered me a top of the range model but nothing turned up, so back on the phone and after a lot of swearing etc They agreed to get my one repaired as they had miraculously found a mother board for it, but it will take another 2 weeks to fix. So is anyone is thinking of buying a Toshiba think twice about it they will do anything to get out of honouring a contract. By the way the new laptop is an HP.

On my home PC I went from XP to W7. The differences at the moment are mostly the inconvenience of getting used to stuff. _________________ BIG GAP   Posted: Fri Jun 03, 2011 10:44 am SMP Silver Status Member Joined: 04 Feb 2011 Posts: 1183 Location: Just south of "Out There"- Land O Lakes Ontario Funny you should mention that Al.

Not even a sorry for pi$$ing me off all this time, It’s a good job it wasn’t something serious.
