*Notebook Update*

Well, it was a nice dream, but that's all it was. My hopes of a two-for-one laptop deal have been turned into shrapnel. I received an email from Michelle (Lenovo) asking about when UPS could pick up the T61.


*sigh*


I knew this day would come, I just didn't want it too. Surprisingly though, it only took them 2.5 weeks to figure it out, I really thought it would have been longer. I replied to let her know when would be an alright time (Dammit, I should have said never) and asked about my letter of apology.


Two days later I get an email of apology. Slugheads. I still cannot comprehend how their customer service can be so bad. I had to call Telus (my cell phone) today & inquire about a LD charge. Within 7 minutes I went through the automated thing, talked to someone, and got my questions answered.


7 minutes was less then the average hold time at Lenovo, let alone once spending more than 10 times that long on hold. What really surprised me about Telus was that not only was it quick, friendly, and accurate, but she also reminded me when my warranty was up & how much caller ID costs. Ya I don't have it, wanna fight 'bout it?


So to put this into perspective, if Telus & Lenovo were to enter a Halo 3 Team Slayer match, heres how things would end up:

Name	Skill	Place	Score	KD Spread	Rank
Telus	47	1st	50	+53	Brigadier
Lenovo	H	LAST - 1	-65,536	-Not defined	Trying to eat Xbox

Case closed. By the way, I edited the HTML on the page to get the table. I guess that makes me a programmer (again) as well as a web developer; cause you know, my blog is on the internet....


Peace
