My wife has one and it's a nice machine, but it is heavy. and it's
also loaded with Visa, which is kind of a pain, but it does everything
she needs it for, which is a lot more than what i need. She's had no
problem with the machine itself, but the battery died w/in warranty,
and who ever she bought it from sent her one out promptly and a call
tag to send the defective one back shipping paid both ways.
The Geek Squad at Best Buys will remove all that stuff for $25. Not sure if they'll work on any
computer, or if it has to be bought there. My wife's was very clean when she brought it home.
hmmm, I said 'Visa" when I meant "Vista" just now caught it. but you
knew what I meant, I'm sure....
Let's see...Tim's wife's computer was loaded with Visa, which "is kind
of a pain..." Visa, aka Vista, is the operating system on that computer.
Herring says the Best Buy boys will remove "all that stuff" (Vista) for
$25.
I wonder what parts of the operating system the Best Buy boys will
remove, and how well the computer will run without them?
Spoofer alert! Any moron would know it will run just fine when a better
operating system, ie: Win7 is installed. Vista sucks.
