I decided to be reasonable and not buy a whole new system. erucader is going to fix it for me instead. I went to pick up my computer this morning only to find that I was surprised buttsecksed with a $50 diagonstic fee that I had not been previously informed I would have to pay. WOW. Add this to the list of things I will be writing to their head office with. I paid it, albeit grudgingly, mostly because I just wanted to get the hell out of there and deal with everything in a calm and concise matter when I write my Incredibly Disgruntled Letter of Customer Dissatisfaction™. When we got home, forest_hermit opened the tower up in preparation for erucader coming over to take a look at it and we found out that they had not only removed their own "Warranty Void If Removed" sticker from the back of the tower, they had also written "NO WARRANTY" in black permanent marker on the bottom of the case. Wow. WOW. This is like... so slick. I am amazed, truly amazed. I still have four months on my regular, default-with-purchase warranty, FYI.

So we went out and I bought another hard drive so that erucader can install it after dinner and I can theoretically be up and running to my satistfaction later tonight. The old drive is a Western Digital, which I've subsequently been told is actually a very good drive, so I'm going to send it back and have them replace it; when that one comes back, I'll just get a case for it and use that as the external hard drive I should have bought a couple of weeks ago.

In related news, my DNS information is apparently all messed up so my website isn't showing up right now either and I can't even FTP into the site. I am so impressed with technology lately, you have no idea. My DVD player better not break or else I'll really lose it.

I am perplexed. I really have no idea what to do about my computer. On the one hand, it's really far cheaper to just replace the stupid hard drive and be done with it. On the other, I am so sick of starting from scratch with it again and again that I just want something more reliable that won't screw me over regularly. I am so very annoyed.

amazingaudrey and I went to Staples to look at the iMac for a bit because I was bored and angsty. It feels incredibly excessive to get a new comptuer when I just bought one eight months ago but I'm just so frustrated and want to wash my hands of the whole thing and never look at it again. I wouldn't consider a new computer to be a waste of money so much as the last one was a waste of money. Argh.

I'm trying to not make a rash decision about this but not having a computer functioning to my usual standards is slowly killing me.
