Nothing ever goes the way it should. Especially when it comes to technicians, etc.
Last Friday they were to come repair my fried modem. Bob was home. He was in the bathroom, they left a note saying no one was home but that our outage situation had been corrected.
.
He and I both called and fussed at them. The soonest they could return was today sometime before noon.
New router is here, he even left me the password information, etc.
But my computer is dead as well.The light is on,on the CPU but it will not shut off. Monitor says it is getting no signal.
Resourceful person that I am, i am on my laptop, which I dislike immensely.
That is okay. I hooked up an external keyboard and mouse and that makes it more user friendly.
I am going to have to earn many pennies to replace my computer. I was probably needing a new one anyway.

It likely all depends on what you are used to. I will get there with this laptop, I guess.

@GardenGerty I especially like being able to move it where ever I want to be. Even outside as the weather gets nicer

Yes, the unexpected happens. Sometimes the results are better than we expected, and I will hold my thoughts in that direction.

At least you have something and that's better then nothing. You can still post and still work.

Glad that they set the modem to rights ! Great minds think alike !
I use my laptop and do the same as you, if my deskcomputer goes haywire.

I would really like a new desktop, but I know lots of people do as we do. I also have a headset for sound. It sounds so much better than my old desktop did. I am enjoying it.

I hope you get it all straightened out, I had problems with my laptop and my friends here who knows computers got me another one to use but he also set up a desktop PC which works much better, I think all my documents will have to be pulled over to that,

I seriously prefer desk tops for working and writing.

I find lately I am very annoyed by people who are supposed to help but do not do their job. Or with websites that do not do their jobs.
