Here’s a song somebody wrote and posted on the web, entitled Didn’t Know I was Unamerican. His goal is to have 2 million people listen to it by Nov. 2nd, 2004.

Pass it around!

Here’s another video about the current political storm we are weathering here in the states, entitled Bush vs. Cheney Debate. If only these clips would get some real airtime, I think this pretty much sums up how I feel about this current Presidency.

So I purchased a laptop on October 3, 2004, and it was kind of shady how TCQ Computers got me into the store. They said over the phone I would have a 7-day return policy, and I could pay by check. After arriving in their store, the guy claimed that was not true, and there was no return policy on laptops, not to mention they wouldn’t take a check either.

So I took a risk. And it BACKFIRED on me!!

After a few weeks of mild usage, the laptop has crashed. It won’t even boot up anymore. I was researching some mutual funds, and the screen went blank, and the laptop shut down. At first I thought it was the battery, but when it didn’t boot up, I knew I was f*cked.

I paid $259 for a compaq armada. I just got off the phone with the guy, and he was claiming that nobody has ever complained about the compaqs he sells. Well, I know technically I agreed to a no-return policy, but I’m going to go in on monday and talk with his manager.

Here is the address of TCQ Computers, I originally saw their ad for the used laptop on craigslist.org:

TCQ Computers

3501 Ryder St.

Santa Clara, CA 95051

Phone: 408-245-1844

I will update this site with the results of what happens on monday.

I do not, at this time, recommend doing business with TCQ Computers. Hopefully, anybody searching for “TCQ Computers” in Google will find my posting and be dissauded from buying anything from them.
