Yesterday:
compusa: Here is your new toy
Me: Yay!
Warcraft: No so fast my friend. Our downloads suck
HP a566n: I got that beat. Terminal freezing. You get 3 minutes to diagnose, then a reboot. Hah!
Today
Google: Dear HP a566n. Maybe it’s a dead fan making you overheat
Circuit City: We’ve got fans. Also RAM. You like Ram.
Me: OK. Hook me up
Money Market Credit card: cha-ching
Later
Circuit City: Here is a confirmation to sign for fans and RAM. $135.
Circuit City: Oh wait. Your order is screwy. We lied about the RAM.
Me: Thanks for taking 1/2 hour to tell me.
Circuit City: Here is a gift card for $24.
Circuit City: Here is another receipt to sign for just the fans. (-$46)
Me: Huh?
Circuit City: We don’t get it either. Just shut up and declare victory.
Money Market Credit card: I only show a charge. But, it’s just pending. Maybe this won’t get all screwed up like that Dell order. Start holding your breath on that one.
