        Remember my macbook problem? How it got damaged at the repair centre? Well it has happened again!!!!

        This is priceless....read.

        I had to send in my other apple computer for repairs. It's an imac and the screen keeps steaming up...Unfortunately I had to send the imac back to the same naughty repair centre as it was handled under warranty.

        Instead of cleaning the mist from the screen, they actually replaced the whole LCD and glass (which is stupid but I'm not complaining).

        This is where it gets funny. I actually recorded my computer with a HD camcorder the day that I sent it for repairs....just in case! It was completely immaculate with no scratches, dents so I went about filming the casing and screen etc. I laughed with customer services saying they better not damage it this time, I've got proof it's in perfect condition. I even put the CNN website up on screen so they couldn't say I filmed it months ago (as CNN has todays news on) hehehe james bond style.

        I got the imac back from repairs in this terrible condition, see images.

        What should I do?? I'm not bothered about the spray on the screen (which looks like someone has sneezed on it)....but furious about the new scratches. Why did they send it back like this?!

        I was going to sell this computer after it had been repaired....I could have advertised it as perfect condition, no damage of any description etc....now these scratches will degrade its value significantly, it looks like its had a fair knock.

        So I can't wait to speak to customer services tomorrow....I've just emailed them the video of my imac before I sent it to repairs and the photos of the damage after. let's see them wriggle out of this one. πŸ˜„

                Shocking? Yes, but I don't think this kind of opinion just applies to republicans (or "right-wingers")? I've heard very similar comments from many who would class themselves as liberal-thinking 'left winger's repeating exactly the same kind of homophobic rhetoric.

                This man is obviously gay or bisexual, and has never come to terms with it.

                  That's probably an insult to homosexuals and bisexuals. He's just sexually repressed, period.

                      Conservatives always saying Obama is driving the economy into the ground, love the chart below.

                      Remember the recession happened on Bush's watch, Obama is doing his best to get us out with full resistance from the right.

                            well if you did as I said and clicked the ten year chart, you would see that the highest the Dow has ever been was under Bush and the Dow didn't start it's dip into recession until right up to a month or so before the election in 08 when everyone knew who would be the next president, a business hating democrat... that scares businesses... it also scares those who invest in businesses, that coupled with the bailouts, tarp and the stimulus... led to no trust in the stock market or wallstreet. so we had the crash... now because of the crash all stocks dropped dramatically... which when stocks are extremely low, where do they have to go? especially stocks in businesses who have received bailouts... they are almost assured of not failing, so take a company that has government backing and an extremely low stock price... what are you going to do?m you're going to do like me and buy AIG and Ford and GM stocks... (ps I'm ranked 73 out of some 50,000 investors on Forbes Investopedia. I took 100k and turned it into $376,000.00) but that's funny money... but I invite you all to give it a try and learn how real money could work for you in the market. http://simulator.investopedia.com

                            anyway... your chart shows Obama as the highest mark on the Dow... not true Bush was. at over 14,000.

                            dowdecade.jpg

                            your chart also shows that Bush inherited some huge Dow and then drove it down... which is completely untrue. the Dow almost doubled under Bush... and then Obama has managed or more likely America has managed to bring it back up to almost pre-recession levels of Bush.

                            now let's compare that to the entire history of the Dow...

                            dowalltime.jpg

                            you can see that the number... represents the whole of the Dow's market... the Volume. which as long as businesses are growing it will increase, if they shrink or close then the volume will shrink.

                            the point is that the DailyKos only espouses information they believe to be in line with their ideas. and if it's not, they manipulate the data to match their premise. and then disseminate it to the public in mass as "truth"

                              So, you are disagreeing that Clinton and Obama have been better for the market based on upward trends?

                              I'm also gonna assume your opinion on the daily kos is equal to my opinion of Fox.

                                Obama? upturn? lmao.... Clinton? yes... Obama... LMAO....

                                I don't watch or read extremists... and I would say they both are.

                                edit, and you realize Clinton's upturn was almost entirely internet bubble... and of course the housing bubble.

                                so you admit that the dailykos chart is BS and manipulated to show their perspective right?

                                  Why, WHY, WHY does ASGVIS insist on having their video tuts done by people with really thick accents? What are they thinking? "Hey, you know what, let's make our vids virtually useless for our non-native English speaking customers!"

                                  Every time I watch a new vid on their site, I get severely dissapointed by the apparent half-*ssed way ASGVIS produces content for their customers. πŸ‘Ž

                                          I offer my sad comment!
                                          I've been beta testing, well over a year now, I still cant see any improvements. You still need to be an engineer to render anything. I have made a lot of suggestion, all have fallen on deaf ears. They simply don't get it! To render in SketchUp you need to be able to simplify the rendering process. Otherwise you end up with a Render program designed for AutoCad users.

                                          my 2 cents!
