For me, I tend to stay clear of Samsung displays and HP laptops. I've had three Samsung CRT displays fail on me in a ridiculously short time. As for HP laptop, bad experience. I bought a HP Compaq laptop and the LCD backlight failed within 6 months. HP refused to repair it, saying that model is obsolete and kept pushing me to buy a new laptop. Fair enough, a third party store replaced the backlight for me, at a cost. Later, the display graphics chipset couldn't go beyond a certain driver version. It turns out that the video BIOS is outdated and a update is needed. Problem is, ATI, the makers of the video chipset of the laptop, did not distribute the BIOS openly and asked me to go back to HP. HP again kept telling me that the laptop is obsolete and kept pressing me to buy a new laptop, even though at that time, the laptop was hardly three years old. I stuck to the old drivers, even though this means many games won't run on it. I stopped using the laptop after I left college and only recently bought another laptop, one that isn't HP.Quote from: MSKing on February 10, 2012, 11:41:21 AMDell.I feel your pain. Dell is #2 on my laptop avoidance list. Not only did they provide crud support (my netbook's LCD display developed a crack, and they refused to service it even though the machine is still in warranty. It also only came with 1GB of RAM and refused upgrade modules of many companies), they refused to repair my mom's Dell XPS laptop on the account that the warranty has expired. And how much do they want for repairing the thing? Three thousand freaking Malaysian ringgits to extend the warranty. If I don't extend the warranty, it will still cost around a thousand for a new motherboard. Nevermind that the problem the laptop developed is widespread on the internet and there is a recall program, when pressed they told me that the recall only applies to North America. That Dell laptop now sits in the store room, stripped off it's hard disk and memory modules (I used the memory modules to upgrade my sister's laptop). My mom now has a nicer, newer laptop that is not a Dell.
Dell.
Simba toys. One of my daughters received some of these for Christmas and the accessories in them stunk of cannabis
There are several dog food companies I will NEVER buy products from again....Purina, Iams, Cesars, Eukanuba, Ol' Roy, etc. I will also never buy jerky made in China because it is treated with radiation and too many pets have gotten sick from chicken jerky. I cannot help but wonder what is in this meat where it needs radiation? It's horrible to think about.The reasons I will not buy from some of the leading dog food companies anymore is that I have discovered the truth in what goes into many of them. Rendered pets.... I saw the video that someone took in an Iams factory where they were putting euthanized cats and dogs in the food. Vets say pets all go to a common grave if you don't cremate them. This "common grave" is a dog food factory. Half the time they won't even remove the collars....they just let it all be ground up. That's not all.....zoo animals, road kill, rotten meat, and butcher junk meat left on the floor is put in this food. Anytime a brand has meat by-products in their food it can be any kind of animal.The drug used to euthanize animals cannot always be cooked out of an animal so your pet is ingesting small amounts of this stuff. Many leading dog food companies use this. I'll never buy something you can find at Wal-Mart or any supermarket for my pet. I go for companies that use GOOD, HUMAN-GRADE food. All of the leading companies like the ones mentioned above use meat by-products. Many have been recalled for making dogs sick. Geez, I wonder why?Yeah....I'm off my soapbox now. I wish more people realized what goes into this stuff.
I thought of one, actually ... I will never, ever have another Comcast service as long as I live. Their customer service is just terrible.
Salvation army- for their similarly homophobic views and their support of extremist christian groups
