I finally packed up my ACER desktop and sent it off by courier to the service department this afternoon. It's had three service calls and continues to randomly restart which is more than a little unsettling. I bought this computer in May and it's never been right - the problem is that after some action (either mine or the technician's) it takes anywhere up to 2 weeks before it plays up again - so the whole saga just drags on. I hate it when technology behaves badly and I also hate that I put up with it for far too long because I can't stand watching my life tick by on hold with customer service.
Richard Glover very eloquently spoke of similar despair in his Sydney Morning Herald article, "An Amish State of Mind" on Saturday.
"There seems no other solution than to burn down your house and start again"
