Zeek, this may help those "off brand" buyers:

It's quite possible you may have purchased a bad computer. Does your computer exhibit any of these signs?

1. The lower corner of the screen has the words "Etch-a-Sketch" on it.
2. It's celebrity spokesman is that "Hey Vern!" guy.
3. In order to start it you need some jumper cables and a friend's car.
4. It's slogan is "Pentium: redefining mathematics."
5. The "quick reference" manual is 320 pages long.
6. Whenever you turn it on, all the dogs in your trailer park start howling.
7. The screen often displays the message, "Ain't it break time yet?"
8. The manual contains only one sentence: "Good Luck!"
9. The only chip inside is a Dorito
10. You've decided that your computer is an excellent addition to your fabulous paperweight collection

Just trying to be helpful

Best regards,

Mark A. Peterson
