I had set aside money for a new PC from the curriculum work I did this summer. My first plan was to buy it during at the Microsoft Store at the Mall of America when I travelled to Duluth, but Microsoft announced that Windows 8 was coming out.\n<\/p>\n
So I waited and purchased it at the “Holiday Store” in Frisco. Didn’t have a big selection, but I liked the Sony Vario they had. I have been traveling all over Dallas with it since I bought it, and haven’t had any problems. Until Friday. I had it in the living room on my computer desk and it had been working fine there.\n<\/p>\n
I unplugged it and moved it to the dining room so my husband and I could both look at it and my husband noticed it had a crack across the screen. I didn’t really see it until I stood up, but realized that the left side of the screen wasn’t working. It’s a touch screen.\n<\/p>\n
I have a Microsoft Assure protection plan and I went to take it back Friday but I couldn’t find the paper receipt and the people working the store couldn’t find their receipt. Well, actually had MOST of my receipt but not the important bar code.\n<\/p>\n
I went back home and found it in a stack of paper in my office and scanned it again, so I do have the all important bar code now. The manager said she could find it in their computer but that the other employees didn’t have access.\n<\/p>\n
The good news, is they are no longer a Holiday store (though it still says that on the Microsoft site), but they are a specialty store now). They still don’t have a repair center or an answer desk so they had to send it to Austin.\n<\/p>\n
They are supposed to ship it back to the house when they are done with it. The manager thinks they will replace it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
