Your rights as a consumer
I’m very curious at the moment to find out what’s going to happen when tones.be can’t find any direct cause to the BSOD and freezes on my newly bought desktop.
Is it going to be : “Here you are, wa can’t find anything wrong. Please come pick up your PC and enjoy your BSOD.”
I’m the first to admit they probably know a lot more about PC’s and hardware than me, but come on, when you experience 3 BSOD and 2 freezes in seven days, on a brand new machine, something has to be buggy right?
I guess it’s Murphy’s law in full motion.
The store (tones.be) is actuallt pretty wellknown here in Flanders and I’ve got some friends that buy there on occasion. None of them have ever had any complaints.
But like I said before, the only time you really get to know a company, is when something goes wrong, and you’re dependant on service and goodwill.
Nevertheless, I’ve done some research on Vista, and the results are mixed and nothing new. On one hand, there are loads of people that have complaints, performance issues. On the other, there’s also lots of people that are enjoying Vista and have all but praise for it.
I can hear you think, why didn’t you but a Mac. Lots of reasons actually. For one, I have lots of Windows only software. Making the switch to an Apple machine also means switching software. Major drag and costly.
Second, I’m used to Windows, never had any real problems with it, and I’m no Microsoft hater.
Others say I should have sticked with my Windows XP.
Major bummer.
