Must be something in the air, my hard drive crashed today.

Now, IF I had used HP to diagnose this, they would have provided the recovery disks I need for free. I didn't use HP, I went to the Geeks since I bought from a BestBuy. Did you know that you now need to burn your own disks when you get your computer or you get charged to get them from HP? Cool huh?

So, now I've spent about 4 hours on the phone, only a half hour dropping of my laptop to find out why it wasn't working and, in only a couple more days, because I'm paying EXTRA, I'll have my disks. Had I not paid the extra shipping charge, I'd have my disks in 7 to 10 business days.

Sigh.
