R.I.P.

Not too long ago (a few days ago), my beloved Compaq Presario V3010AU decided to self-destruct itself for seeing me starting to study so early due to unknown reason. Right now, its sitting in George's home after the final tests had been done to ensure that its really dead before committing myself to getting a new one.

The laptop that was laid to rest

Honestly, Dell has disappointed me for the first and the last time in getting one of their Vostro series by forcing me to take the parts upgrade worth £60 as a trade-off for a free delivery, BUT THEIR WEBSITE SAYS ITS FREE DELIVERY. Wtf. Daylight robbery in progress. What a way to treat your customers and even dare to tell them that "Sir, even if you placed your order on the website, it will get declined the next day". So tell me then, why does Dell bother to update their website with their latest offer if customer's aren't entitled to purchase them? FFS

Lenovo N200 3000 stages a coup-de-etat

Yeh, since Dell doesn't care about their kuchirat customers (i.e. purchases not more than £400), I moved on to get myself a Lenovo 3000 N200. Specs are so much better (except for the proc, but cousin says its quite ok) and a dedicated graphic card, all for £30 extra. No longer do I need to entertain some idiotic sales department personnels, its all down to peace and quiet now.
