The TX1210 is fixed!

I’ve finally got my HP laptop fixed after many rants on how crappy their laptops are and how inadequate their help desks are. It turns out the motherboard needed to be fixed. It wasnt because the adapter was broken (which was the first guess) or the battery (2nd guess). It was the motherboard. I shipped it on Tuesday and I just got it back last night. I admit, I am pretty impressed since it didnt take them a week like the agent said it would. I guess due to Xmas coming up they didnt want to fix any laptops during the weekend but instead spend time Xmas shopping? lol So now I’m going to try not to screw up the laptop again. I’m also glad that I finished all my Xmas shopping. I dont have to shop for alot of people so I’m happy with that. I have to buy myself lots of Xmas shopping after the holidays where everything is going to be on sale (and hectic). :slant: I didnt realize how difficult it was to find foot scrubs or foot lotions in stores out there. I had to go to practically every store in one of the largest malls in Toronto and I didnt find any! I just went to the local drug store 10 minutes away from my house and found it there… :sowhat: Waste of my time.

Oh yeah one last time I have to say about the horrible prof I had last semester. He states in his blog that he gave one student an F for failing to take the exam. It turns out that the student did take the exam. The prof just misplaced the exam paper. Once he found it, the student ended up getting a B… What kind of teacher loses an exam?! :devil: Useless.. I know that he’s not perfect. He is only human. But dont give them an F without actually speaking to the student. There are reasons why those exam invigilators take attendance during the exam you know. So you can use it to track down if there are any students who didnt take the exam… Ugh, useless.. Definitely useless.
