That story sucks and as soon as Ron posted the message that we were going to
get at least one email with a nightmare story like this.
I hope your friend gets his situation straightened out. When I brought my
picture book people said similar things abotu Sony, and yet my Viao was
pretty ruggard until its death. In any event, I'd send a letter to the NY
Attorney Generals office about this.
All that being said, my ex Ex-Wife won a machine for free at the party. So I
guess we will have one go through the Safir kids test!

The 800 died 3 weeks ago, after having it for a total of 2 weeks, and it was sent to that 57th street store when he first bought it. He was given a receipt which had some internet code to check on its repair.

You must be a stupid engineer then, because politcs and technology have been attacted at the hip since the 1st dynasty in Ancient Egypt. I guess you missed that one."
