Laptop broken.

Am pissed.

At laptop and at Dell.

Fuckers.


So, we know about the ethernet issue, correct? Occaisonally, for no apparent reason, my connection craps out on me. Someone else's cord doesn't work. My cord works with other people's computers. It's just with the laptop that it craps out.

Well, today, may AC Adapter started doing the same thing.

Yeah.

I have yet to get it to work again, though. Steve's connector doesn't work. I don't know if my connector works on Steve's laptop, but it sure doesn't work on mine.

Which means I don't have a laptop! Because I have no other way for the battery to charge! Awesome, yeah?

No.

Fuck.

I finally found where I could submit a form asking for support on the Dell website. And am pissed, have I mentioned? Because I don't have a laptop? And all my shit is on there?

Fuck.

Hopefully they'll send you a replacement without too much bother. Why is it always the AC adapters that go on laptops? The same thing happened to a friend of mine and she was without hers for ages. I think she went a little crazy for a while there...

Uck. It's not even the AC adapter, it's the insides of the computer itself. By now I've tried three (3!!!!) adapters that I know work.

So, aparently? They're shipping parts to someone and sending him/her out here to fix it for me? Which is a bit of an issue because I live in a dorm. But whatever.

So. Angry.
