three of my friends bought a new computer about one year ago. they all ahd the same harddisks (80 GB IBM). now, one year later, ALL harddisks screwed EXACTLY one year after they were bought! but really exactly! the time difference between the deaths of the disks were exactly the same difference they've bought the comps! isnt that weird? exactly one year.... EXACTLY! i cant stand that! _______________ Aeth S'kray *June 2002 +September 2003 |

Speaking of Warranties. Conspiracy Theories are correct. If something has a 5 year warranty, companies want it to last 5 years and 1 day. _______________ When you are going through Hell, keep going. -Sir Winston Churchill.

That is weird! 
I heard of something like that happening with LinkSys Wireless laptop cards. They just shipped out a bad batch to the CompUSA I was working at at the time. _______________ Midbie Council Member #2 - Profile ID 2073 | Member of B@rtM@ulS@ar | Owner of Monty's 2000th comment & D@RtHM@UL's 8100th comment | Former Padawan of SilkMonkey & Arcuss JA Goaltender & NHL Fan | Fellow Rush fan to Axion|Plo Koon is my oldest JA friend Post your RL pics HERE! | Post you JK2/JK3 screenies HERE!

humm... to that, i say this
Its a Conspiracy i tell you! Also, my friend advised to get nothing more than a 60 GB. Get the Futureshop warranty, and break it a few days before its out (they have to give you a new one) _______________ When you become an actor, you become the person, and you dont act anymore.

yeah, u know every HD manufacturer has had a bad series. I presume this were those maxtor drives, or the infamouse IBM ICL35 series....
but nevertheless a weird experience... _______________ One of the Belouve boys, founder of the mighty FiZZsters Midbie council #20 - Fizz - #1933 - Jan '03 - Aug '04 "Renfield, you idiot!" |
