It Is Done
Posted by Bill Thanks to some cheap interest rates, I just pulled the trigger on the most awesome laptop ever. (And with their "30-day no questions asked" return policy, it strikes me that I could return it after blogging the convention). PS - Yeah, yeah, "Sony's aren't rugged," "service sucks," but if I wind up keeping it, I have a 3-year warranty that makes them send some guy to my home to fix it.

Somewhere, not far from you, a Powerbook is weeping for what might have been. Posted by: Jeff Harrell at August 12, 2004 04:40 PM Here's a tip, which i learned the hard way about Sony. Send in that warranty registration immediately. In fact, make sure you have proof that you registered within thirty days or whenever the limit is. Because when it breaks down, and it will, if you haven't registered within their stupid arbitrary time limit, THAT WARRANTY AIN'T WORTH TWO DOG SHITS, because they will refuse to honor it, those bastard!

Posted by: willow at August 12, 2004 06:29 PM Did I mention that it will run Doom 3 like a dream? And that it has a widescreen high definition display with ultrabright technology, that makes colors more vivid, provides higher contrast between blacks and whites and automatically adjusts the pitch of the monitor to compensate for various light gradiations? And it will run Doom 3 like a dream? (Eat your heart out, marble) Posted by: Bill from INDC at August 12, 2004 07:06 PM I hate you. My Sony VAIO, which I've had for four years, just went to the great junkheap in the sky. Today. Posted by: RS at August 12, 2004 11:21 PM Only 4 years? What happened to it? Posted by: Bill from INDC at August 12, 2004 11:28 PM ... shudda bought that PowerBook, pal. Really.

Posted by: Bill from INDC at August 13, 2004 02:00 AM A man will "fix it" at your house? I have heard of that movie!!!! Posted by: JP at August 13, 2004 06:08 PM |
