Some people take a defective product personally. Other
people are unable to use any product since they fail to use
it properly. Some products are very unforgiving, such as
explosives, other products, bubble gum for example are
pretty straight forward, but used improperly can still kill.
Computers may be the most complex machines of the age, and
they do require nearly perfect design, manufacture and
operation.
As you said, Toshiba does have repair stations and new
products always entail a learning curve at all stages of
design, production and marketing. The user also needs to
RTFM and take some responsibility both before and after a
purchase.

in the interests

to the point

doesn't.. if it
| is a hardware issue with Toshiba, he shouldn't be posting
here anyway..
|
| I even looked through some of the forums to try to get a
handle on what is
| happening with the silly notebooks before I answered.. if
he wants to sit on
| his notebook, I am not about to stop him..
