I had problem with driver - i told it once. So i contact
technical support for compaq laptops , and they said that
theres no possibility to get this driver from web !! how can
it be ? such a big company - so small driver , it was driver
for Radeon, funny... i had to do system restore , it solved
the problem but also it erased all data , including mp3 ,
films and such.

I've heard that compaq has had problems with customer
service in the past. Still, always remember to back up your
data so you dont lose it if you have to do a system
restore.

ugh, i wouldnt buy from dell if my life depended on it...
sorry, they might in fact make good cpu's, but their adds
have always been the single most annoying ones on tv. i just
couldnt go through with it.

plus then i just KNOW everyone i knew would make that lame
joke for weeks before it arrived.

you know the one.

i know a guy that is working in computer service of some
kind , hes selling monitors , but what he is doing is
sticking labels of "sony" on these monitors. not very fine ,
i think.

Fortunately, being a resident of the UK and not exposed to
USA adverts, I don't know the one :)

Dell had a series of supremely annoying commercials wherein
their geeky/irritating pitchman used the tagline "Dude,
you're getting a *DELL*!!!"

That's the one, Ceri. Be glad you weren't bombarded with
them.

compaq laptops blow for the most part. they didn't used to
(my first computer ever was a compaq laptop), but over the
last 5 years they've just gone down hill. you really can't
beat toshiba when it comes to dependability and reliability
in a notebook.
