I can empathize with your situ...Dearest Jeannette,<br /><br />I can empathize with your situation, concerning these wonderful laptops that allow us in Pain to keep our Blogs up, our email, our lifeline to the world; in the most comfortable way possible.....and when we are relegated back to those dinosaur desktops when the laptops decide to take a break, well...I basically can't do that anymore--!! The sitting for any length of time on the most ergonomic chair I could find, for more than 5 minutes, causes severe spasms and vertebral pain; and that's it for me and the desktop! <br /><br />You know that our situations are very similar with having our careers cut short, losing so much of our accustomed way of living due to leaving work, and in the end; these types of things such as our laptops needing some lovin', can become huge issues to us and alter our ability to keep up what we now have both naturally fallen into--writing about our lives, our daily challenges; and keeping up connections with others--many also in Chronic Pain and Illnesses, to give them our love, knowledge, empathy and support, and we get oh so much back in return. <br /><br />Of course the financial issue is also one that I relate to. About a laptop: I will suggest a site called newegg.com, where my new laptop came from, it is an ASUS, and I am thoroughly pleased, also the co. has great policies regarding breakage, internal or external issues, even dropping it.... and fixes are quick and communication with the co. is great. My son builds computers and he has purchased most of the components from New Egg, over many years; always being quite happy with their customer service. He really likes ASUS products. So great track record! <br /><br />It fully sucks though when the "it happened in transit" issues happen. Don't get me started on UPS and a long and drawn out interaction with them over a shipment!! YIKES! Let's just say that would be a 4 part blog post!!! Have you noticed how many shipping companies seem to push us to purchase insurance, yet when something happens where the insurance actually comes into play and is needed; suddenly it becomes null and void according to them!!! 8-P <br /><br />If you want more info about laptops or that site, email me!! <br /><br />Giving you many gentle hugs and loving thoughts that you are feeling the best that you can....I've been very very ill the last 2 weeks so not up to even think about posting...oh well. <br /><br />Good Luck with the 'puter situation honey! <3<br /><br />xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoShaunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17517544369249500224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2558223186713255156.post-54171821343432227602010-02-08T07:26:16.231-08:002010-02-08T07:26:16.231-08:00I too share your pain.

I also have an Acer and have been hitting a wall trying to obtain the most basic technical info from them.<br />And after the insulting long wait for the cashback offer (as promised upon purchase) I will never buy another Acer again.HeatHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12621692755037459411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2558223186713255156.post-72457683190779646672010-02-05T12:17:42.696-08:002010-02-05T12:17:42.696-08:00Hey there< I found you via a comment you left o...Hey there< I found you via a comment you left on a news article regarding pain and depression. I am Katelyn Bradwell- the woman they profiled. Just wanted to say I read your comment, and can empathize. the article was misleading regarding my use of antidepressants to lessen pain. I did not use the antidepressant meds for more than 6 weeks. I did however treat the depression with a comprehensive chronic pain program (30 days) that helped tremendously on every level. Started exercising a little- and over a year built up strength. The yoga I do- i am convinced helps treat both the pain and the depression. But I was mad at the way my story was hijacked by the news for their own purposes of backing up a study on antidepressants and pain. You can find me at compasiva@aol.com if you want to be in touch. Peace to you, whatever state your pain is in these days.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2558223186713255156.post-44087535729645093852010-02-01T08:57:07.369-08:002010-02-01T08:57:07.369-08:00Hi,

Acer SHOULD know this ; they're idiots if they don't. <br />Also ; i hate my PC too. lol its way too slow! If only there were a way to make them faster eh? <br />Hope you are feeling well and that the family is doing well also! : )<br /><br />Miss you! <br />Cassandra <br />xoxoxCassandranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2558223186713255156.post-851916890224152842010-01-17T10:14:51.355-08:002010-01-17T10:14:51.355-08:00Great Blog!
