So I got my laptop back

Thank goodness! I like it so much better than Brian's old work computer.

Anyway, the report says that they replaced the motherboard, palmrest, DVD-RW, and AC adapter.

I think that means my old computer was a piece of crap. But that's just a guess.

So now I wait and see if things work better now. My warranty is up Feb 1, 2009. I'm trying to be optimistic but the way my luck is going, I expect my laptop to blow up Feb 2.

Stay tuned.
