In article ,
, a.k.a Simon Zerafa says... I am surprised you had to pay to have all the recent XP patches installed. Why? Any half competent computer company / dealer should be doing this anyway. Why? This is something which I do as standard before shipping any PC to a customer for free Ah, i see. Because you do it, so should everyone else. Fair enough. |

It really is so simple, i fail to see how you cannot understand it, or even question why it exists. Give it a day or two and teeth will pop along and kill file you for talking reason. :-) It really is silly. All the details are listed on their web site. My concern is that they will be checking laptops then ones that fail the PDI check but acceptable will be put to side for the next person who doesn't pay for the PDI. In effect you pay the PDI or have a much higher chance of dead pixels that if you went elsewhere. Of course with all the comlaining by others about £49 quid being too high, I suspect they assume the magic packing faries unpack the machine and re-pack it. If its anything like my old Toshiba, its like trying to heard a pack of Red Setters into the back of a car. -- Gamma gamma gamma chameleon You come and glow, you come and glow.

Exactly my point, don't pay for this extra service and you increase your chances of getting a machine with dead pixels compared with buying from a supplier who doesn't do this. -- Peter Parry. http://www.wpp.ltd.uk/ |
