Further computer stuff

I've lodged an incident with HP, using slight-legalese to get across the fact that I know of the existence of the Sale of Goods Act (1979). I'll see what they come back with. I was pretty impressed that I got a phone call from an engineer within 5 minutes of submitting the form.

In the meantime I'm using a login on Julie's desktop, which is a quad-core box, and absolutely gorgeous. I want one, badly. But not this week, if it can be helped. I've been looking to see if I can get a dead version of my laptop, to use for spares, but nothing on eBay today.

Thanks for the advice from the various people yesterday - much appreciated.

Good luck :-)

If they're non-cooperative write them a letter. If they ignore the letter, take them to small claims court. They won't turn up, you will win and then you can get the money out of them.

I'll definitely give the letter a go.

I've always wondered about small claims courts - do companies just pay up without thinking about it if a judgement is made?

In my totally imagined non researched or experienced world they do!

Go get 'em.
