It's a real shame. He does seem to know about hard drives,


And the law too thanks Funk.


he just doesn't have the maturity to go with the knowledge.


Nothing 'mature' about lying, Funk. Typically juvenile behaviour.


Like I said, prove me wrong.


Pointless bothering, Funk. You'd only
keep lying about what I had already said.

Reams of your puerile attempts to bull**** your way
out of your predicament flushed where they belong.

Try harder, Funk. You might actually manage to fool someone, sometime.

But then, you and reality aren't on handshaking terms.


That about sums it up. You are arguing not only with a troll, not
only with a kook, but with the epitome of mental illness and a
testimony to what some lucky Australian Mental Health workers have to
go through on a routine basis.

Trying not to admit defeat after being wrong for the umpteenth
consecutive time is making the fruitcake writhe around in his straight
jacket as he furiously strikes at the keys with the pencil in his
mouth - frequently pausing to fling away the drool and occasionally
stopping to bang his helmeted head against the wall to relieve some of
the frustration.

Very good point.

I would think he would have needed to open up the box, and record
directly the info of the disk BEFORE he brought it in.

A receipt only shows that you bought the drive, not that it was in the
box when you took it in.

What is the price of a used 40 G drive vs. the price of a
used 80 G drive? I would think that any court would factor
in that the subject drive was a used one when brought into
the repair shop, and that the plaintiff does have a working
drive now.

Like $20?? Maybe even less.

Problem is (and I hate to say this and
let them get away with it), that the costs involved even tho not a
lot, probably isn't worth your time and money to go to small claims
court for a 80 gig hard drive nowadays.
