this is what i wanted to post but i had 4 screaming kids and didnt realize i cut off the first part.
in april of 2001 i sold a system, it was a P1 166, 48 MBram, 2.1 GHD, zipdrive, 24XCD-Rom, 4MB video, sound, nic, monitor, KB and mouse for $225. i even drove an hour away to fix it the first time she dumped the OS, 3 days later she does it again, this time i make her bring it back, i find out its because she is trying to install IE 5.5 on win 95, so i put win 98 on it and it works fine, but crashes more often than win 95 does (most of these only occur when yahoo is running, she ALWAYS! has yahoo open), so anyway out of the blue she messages me on yahoo 2 weeks ago to tell me she talked to a" computer expert who has been repairing pentiums for 25 years(pretty cool eh i thought they had only been around since the beginning of the 90's), anyway, seems this guy told her the system was a piece of crap and i had screwed her and should give her her money back, that it was crashing because its Mhz are wrong, and the HD is smaller than I told her, this goes on for the last 2 weeks, i ask her what she means, so here is what she tells me, when the system starts it says 167 mhz, and in windows it says for the HD 1.98 GB, these are the 2 reason she feels it crashes. finnaly i say bring back the comp and i'll give you your money back! so she refuses to answer, just keeps on bitchin, i try to explain chrystals and clock mulipliers to her, i told her technically a 166 is realy 165, so she told me that was wrong a 166 is a 166, i tried to explain that crystals control the clock speed of the mother board and the cpu is a multiple of the mother board. and the diferance between 1024 and 1000, she just keeps messaging me and bithing about how i ripped her and how i should give her her money back so finnally i said ok fine bring the system back and i'll give you your money back funny -Casca
thing is she does not answer when i say that just keeps on bithing that i should send her the money, so i call this "expert" up, and he tells me she asked about up grading and he told her that she nedded a new tower, PS MOBO CPU and Ram, that she could keep her drives video and sound card and nic, and that he never said any thing about me that she was off on her own about that and then i basically tell her where to go, so she starts trying to prove shes a genius in computers by asking me "who made the first pc, and what did he make it out of?", so i say "IBM in about 1981 out of ciruit boards tin and some other things" she says "you just proved how stupid you are, it was bill gates in 1972 out of wood!" YES INDEED FOLKS bill gates MADE THE FIRST COMPUTER OUT OF WOOD!!!!!, she also went on to tell me bill gates made the Commodore AND the Atari. if any of you need to find out about computers i am sure she would be more than happy to teach you! her user name is hot_carmel_sundae2002 and she LIVES on yahoo. -Casca
