*Plonk* your ass too.

I bought a Laptop at bestbuy. Got the restore disc's from Sony. If a person
does not know how to call the mfg to get them then that's not a BestBuy
problem. As for myself, I much rather buy a company computer from BestBuy
then some hole in the wall computer repair shop that is here today and gone
next week type.

I don't work for BestBuy, CC Or anyone for that matter. But I could say the
same thing for other repair shops as well.
I've seen systems that other's have fixed. Mistakes were and are made. I
just don't agree when a private repair guy talk's smack about other fix it
places and always point's the blame on them. I've seen lot's of mistakes
made in repairs to computers from such places. I advise them to return it
and get what that paid for. A working computer.

Go ahead and reply. Then that way all will see that you did not plonk me.
But I will add you to my *Plonk* list. Then you can get the last word in.
