    Default BAD BAD BAD Service from Hewlett Packard

    We have a less than 3 year old H-P Desktop Home Computer. We bought it from BEST BUY. Last weekend the mouse gave up the ghost so I went to BEST BUY and bought an H-P wireless, electronic, comfort mouse. About 1/2 the time it works right. The rest of the time the cursor either doesn't move at all, or it takes off uncontrollably. So I called H-P today and had to talk with techs whose voices were definitely NOT North American. I'm guessing East Indian. Their dialect was so thick I couldn't hardly understand them. Even now, while I'm writing this, my cursor is going bananas. I bought the mouse last Saturday and H-P told me the warranty was expired because it's only good for 1 year. Again, I bought it 7 days ago from BEST BUY. They told me they would call me back in less than 2 hours with recourse and an updated warranty. They didn't call back after almost 3 hours so I called them back with the Ticket # they gave me. When I called them back, I was, after 5 minutes or more holding, connected with someone whose accent was even thicker than before. That person told me that after 24-48 hours someone would get back to me. How many times do I have to go to the manufacturer to get a product that works the way it should. H-P brags about their customer service, but this is ridiculous. Thanks for listening to this rant, but I'm really P-O'd and I want to shuv this mouse up BEST BUY's & H-P's caboose.

    You are not kidding! I hate their products. I like my Dell so much better. Did anyone watch NCIS last week? I thought I was gonna see the day Gibbs was gonna put a couple holes in it. That would been fun!

    Check to see if there are separate drivers for it.

    Just return it to Best Buy. Tell them it didn't work as advertised and you want to return it.
