? 3 days to fix or REPLACE the damaged computer
? 3 days back to me
? RMA EN010515079

? Box arrives via Purolator (not Fedex as stated by Brian)
My computer was finally returned Mar 8/05 but now I have no USB on the motherboard. The wireless doesn’t seem to be the same as on the first motherboard. It’s also not making the wireless connection the way the first one did. It has been suggested to me by a technician that I may not have the same kind/or that I may have a refurbished motherboard now.
Does anyone have any suggestions that will help me get either my money back, or a replacement functioning computer. I really can’t afford to be without my computer for another 2 months while they try to resolve it again
