5 years ago I had a $2K custom built dell built for me. 3.06 Ghz P4 w/hyperthreading, 2 gigs of ram, ATI 9800 PRO video card, Santa Cruiz 7.1 surround sound card, the works. 5 years ago that PC was the ****. It still would hold its own today if the motherboard wouldnt have blown 6 months ago.
No one was home when the UPS guy attempted to deliver. So he left it at the neighbors house and didnt leave a slip on my door. I got home around 4PM and was all pumped cause I couldnt wait to set this beast up. It wasnt there and I
. I went online and used the tracking number and it said it was delivered. Now I started to panic cause I didnt have it. I called UPS and they said they didnt have it and that it was delivered. I called Dell and they said they would look into it but couldnt help today. I was really pissed and bumed about the situation. 9PM comes and the neighbor THEN decides to knock on the door and tell me that they received my computer and they didnt want to leave it in the garage. While I was relieved that I got it, I was pissed they waited 5 hours to say anything to me. To me that was 5 hours wasted on my old 933 mhz POS.
Now all my current neighbors do is just shut the door to the building while Im carrying groceries, a 2 year old and her diaper bag. WOOT WOOT.
