I bought an HP Pavilion to replace one that got hit by a thunderstorm. Like the footprint, but here’s the most aggravating thing – first thing I do, is upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate but with the house disaster and all I hadn’t remembered to do that and then couldn’t figure out why I couldn’t remote in, like I could the old computer….
Well, I done the upgrade with the old computer’s product key,which it took but then a month later starts puking on. Well, that one couldn’t be used (I don’t get why, but oh well, I’ll buy another one). But all the HP support stuff starts getting in the way.
Almost bought the key from support, but it took over a freaking hour, on online chat to get that far, then they decided they had to “guide me” on the phone. Well, at least they didn’t pretend by calling themselves, Allen or Don, or something dumb like that.
Now, we have to grade our non-English speakers every year, and I think I would have been generous if I had given him an average on listening, as he wouldn’t even listen when I told him I has having trouble understand him on the phone.
Ended up going to the Microsoft store the long way, and buying the upgrade that way.
