PC Superstore Admits Linux Hinge Repair Mistake

Erris writes "PC Superstore says their store manager was wrong to turn away a client with a broken hinge whose machine should have been repaired. 'El Reg put a call in to the DSGi-owned retail giant to get some clarification on PC World's Linux support policy. A spokesman told us that there had simply been a misunderstanding at the store and that, in fact, the normal procedure would be for the Tech Guys to provide a fix. [PC World] will provide a full repair once the firm has made contact with Tikka.'

But I did. http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=294841&cid=20566253. Now you are still "fighting the good fight", but your laptop still isn't fixed. BTW on my dell I have a an extra drive with windows on it that swaps out in 2 minutes. Let us know when it is fixed for real and all us slashdotters can coach you with our brilliance and wit.
