Maintenance Window Sucks
I'm just going to go on record here and say that a regular maintenance window that prevents us from uploading images sucks! Come on. You guys are not a new company - at least 6-7 years old. You can engineer around locking your customers out on a regular basis. I get it if every once-in-a-long-while (like only a couple… -
Re: Giving back to the community! --Contest Entry Thread

Re: Suggestions to replace an ancient laptop please
Just my two bits to add to the party line here... I'm into my 5th year with my Dell Inspiron 8200 P4 1.6Ghz laptop. The screen was replaced under warranty about 11 months after I bought it as the backlight failed. Couriered it to Dell on a Friday afternoon and it was back at my door Tuesday at 9:00AM. And while they had it… -
