CPU warranty of 90 days...typical?
My first Intel Pentium 4 CPU failed after
about 10 months. I ordered another one from a different vendor and this time couldn't help but notice the notation "Warranty 90 days" on the sales order confirmation. Have I been on another planet since warranties became so short? Anyway, damned if the this one hasn't failed after about 11 weeks. The vendor charged $48 for the CPU. Am I getting (no more than) what I paid for? Advice welcomed. -- Charles Packer http://cpacker.org/whatnews mailboxATcpacker.org |
