Hi,
I am surprised you had to pay to have all the recent XP patches installed. Any half competent computer company / dealer should be doing this anyway. This is something which I do as standard before shipping any PC to a customer for free.

After all The most common quality checks are for conformance to tolerances. So with nothing in writing to the contrary, it is not unreasonable to assume that it is just an extra quality control check. A quick search of their website reveals: http://www.laptopsdirect.co.uk/asp/p...rchFor=&PT_ID= Its a gaurantee of zero pixel defects, i.e. testing for complaince to Class I TFT pixel defects. Wasting your time mate... Dr Teeth and Johannes would argue black was white rather than admit they were simply *wrong* on this point. It has been rather funny though stringing them along for a while. OK, I see "Guarantee of no missing pixels"... But I'm still puzzled about what you're actually paying the £49 for. It says that it's for a 'Pre delivery inspection' which is a 'Complete quality check by our engineers'. In reality you don't need an qualified engineer to find missing pixels, but suppose that you saved the £49 and had it inspected instead by an independent top qualified engineer and that he found it had 1 missing pixels? Would they then replace the laptop? If they wouldn't, then the £49 is for more than the inspection, it's for getting a different quality level. Hence the £49 is effectively a surcharge on their computers. |
