Its just a shame Penners that Comet choose to ignore and abuse this law and usually only admit fault when threatened with court.

So threatening them with the law works then?

Not this time, I had to get in touch directly with Acer who will repair the computer free of charge. Comets call centre staff couldn't care less.

 

[skier-hughes]

you obviously never needed a business loan Biff, unlike myself, who wouldn't have been so succesful if I hadn't had a helping hand from the bank at the beginning, or a mortgage to buy your house?

Of course I have benefited from these laws. That doesn't make them good laws. .

:roll:

Yet another argument for patronising your nearest AppleStore.

That's not the first time that I've encountered the words "patronising" and "Apple" in the same sentence. :wink:

I cant dig that deep I'm afraid, apples tend to sit quite deep in the pocket.

 

[Moo]

But they don't lose their flavour, or go off.






And I'm going to ignore that cheap jibe, Penners.

Not directed at you at all, dear Moo, but at the global Appleocracy, who show a group tendency to react to the word 'Microsoft' as though they have a bad smell under their collective noses. :wink:

It does make me wonder how the majority Appleites can sit, now that Apple is such a large money rich company, as they used to grumble at the way MS was such a big company making all that money :wink:

I usually find that the Apple fraternity get very superior about the (fictitious) idea that the Mac OS (a) never crashes and (b) never gets virus infections.

 

[LadyArowana]

Don't apples get worms?

 

[Penners]

I wonder whether worms has an Apple.

"Number Crunching" from a recent Private Eye (#1299):

$8.3bn - Personal fortune of Apple boss Steve Jobs, hailed as visionary and anti-establishment hero

$25bn - Amount distributed to charitable causes since 1994 by Microsoft boss Bill Gates, who does not enjoy the same reputation

Only an ageing iPod so that I can play music in the car when I'm out of radio reception. Pockets nowhere near deep enough for the modern gizmos!

I'm afraid I have a "plague on both their houses" approach and running Linux systems!
