Computer Update

Today Kirsten is taking the good computer to PC Doctor for repair. Pixel USA has lost our business forever, and we will let friends know about ou experiences.

Pixel charged us $60 for the diagnosis, and lost a CD of drivers. They wanted $200 to reapir the damage done by the virus! PC Doctor will charge us less than a quarter of that for the entire deal. They will get all our business from no own.

Hopefully, the computer will be repaired early next week. It is extremely difficult to read LJ on the 3.1 box, and nothing formats correctly. Posting is also a pain in the arse. Also, my book will come up for playtest soon, and it is in Word2000 format.

Stay tuned, sports fans..

PixelUSA sounds like they have the same lack of business ethics that one of the jobs I used to have did... that place would never revalue stock based on current prices... so I had to charge someone $600 for a 4gig drive.

Submit a bill to Pixel USA for the lost CD. Be sure to include a charge for your time (minimum one hour) at *professional* rates in locating the replacement files on the Internet.

If they argue, smile sweetly and ask if they'd like to see what a judge in small claims court would say.

Also, remind me just before you come up for Orycon, and I'll see about putting together a "backup" system for you to take home that runs something better than Win 3.1!

You may not remember me...

...But I haunted uma for a long time.

If you do, it's Deathbunny...

...Stupid question: Which game are you working on now?

(Still GURPS...?)
