As in New GEAR Day- I ordered a new Dell Lap top to replace my 4 y/o ? HP- it has been giving me grief for a while- it's getting really sluggish and the touch pad has been a nuisance when playin solitaire since forever- it's being shipped fed ex from Tennessee- original expected delivery date was today, before "end of day" (9 PM) - the tracking now says before "end of day" (9 PM) Friday
I get stuff from fed ex, through Sweetwater in Fort Wayne Indiana in 3 days- Fort Wayne is further away than Nashville which is where the Dell facility is- well, actually an east side of Nashville suburb (810 miles) from where I stays- Fort Wayne is 1142 miles
On the bright side, my new guitar won't suffer not being played with on it's first day
I've played (best I can recall right now) 30 some odd 1000 (30,000) + games of solitaire- and have reached Level 509 (Gold Master, for what that's worth ) so I'll be starting over with that as well- I sure hope the touch pad is better than the HP- although I suspect that's a Microsoft issue- I have talked with HP and Microsoft and screen shared with them so they could see what I'm talking about when I say the curser goes crazy sometimes (quite often actually) and neither had a clue- I have a really inexpensive ASUS as well (for streaming only) so I can keep busy on the HP when streaming because I can't just sit and do nothing for more than a few minutes and it has a touch pad issue as well and it's just over a year or so old- I've talked with them as well and they don't have a clue (so they all 3 say) all 3 being HP, Microsoft and ASUS- I believe it's Microsoft issue and I've seen similar complaints from others- SMH- I do have me fingers crossed tho- a DIL is a well respected (at home) sales rep for Dell, so maybe, IF, I do have a problem she can hook me up with an intelligent source for figuring it out-
