Frustration

     The world today is full of frustrations. Most of the situations that frustrate me are ones that I have no control over. Like when you have to depend on others to do their jobs, in order to help you with an issue or problem.
     As previously reported, I received my first laptop. We got it all hooked up and was working fantastic. Then I started getting a pop-up window telling me that I was using a counterfeit copy of Windows 7. Huh?? What the heck does that mean??  To make a really long story short. Well, shorter..... I spent over 4 hours on the phone and on the computer with a technician from Dell. She eventually had me totally wipe out my entire computer to the original factory settings. Oh nice....all my pics gone. Roxio Creator that I had just spent $55 on, gone. Dell then sent me some discs to re-install all the programs. I called Dell Service for assistance in the installation and talked to a different technician. He had me read to him some numbers that are on the bottom of the laptop. He punched them in and it was fixed. FIXED!! Really? 
     So I decided to get really brave and order a wireless printer. It came yesterday. Unpacked (man they use alot of tape) and set it all up. Put the installation disc in..... Wrong disc. Belongs to a different printer. Here I go again. I have their number memorized. Guess what, they can't just send the manuals and disc for my printer. They have to send a whole new printer. Really?? So I packed up the printer and other "stuff". And now wait for the other one to be shipped. Oh and did I mention I had to speak with Achmed from Sri Lanka. Huh?? What'd you say? You get my drift. I need a drink.....................
