Monitors

[Steve]

its out for delivery today, they resent it last night with a different firm, they are now using TNT.

O'dear that's explodes doesn't it

[Rik]

I can understand them resenting TNT, it's the firm that specialises in losing data.

[psp83]

aslongs they dont misplace it like they did with the gov disks!!



maybe i'll get the disks insted of the monitor 

[Rik]

They might be worth more.

[psp83]

errmmm, i only bought one monitor but TNT just delivered 2 

i've only been charged for one!!

[Rik]

What did you sign for, Paul, a consignment or two packages? The second one, as it stands, is an unsolicited gift.

[psp83]

had to sign twice as the driver wouldn't leave!!

question is, do i phone them up and be honest with them?

[Rik]

If you've signed twice, then yes. Before doing so, though, I would take a look at both, and decide which one you want to keep.

I didnt want to sign twice but the driver said i have to or he wont leave until i do

Dont worry. i will be looking at both and picking the best one 

[Rik]

Always a good idea if they give you a choice. Presumably you can connect both up simultaneously?

[Simon]

I would have only signed for one, and refused to accept delivery of the other, so as to avoid the hassle of having to send it back myself. 

[psp83]

he wouldn't do that

but gives me the choice of what to keep 

[Rik]

After which it's up to OC to arrange collection at a time convenient to you, it's their mistake and the driver was their agent.

[Simon]

Yes, tell them to have a driver sitting outside from 8am to 6pm, Paul, and you'll pop out with the monitor at a convenient moment! 

[Rik]

[Rik]

If we all started doing it, I suspect delivery arrangements would change very quickly. 

[Simon]

I'd love the opportunity to try it!

[psp83]

Yes, tell them to have a driver sitting outside from 8am to 6pm, Paul, and you'll pop out with the monitor at a convenient moment! 

I asked that.. there response was.. "sorry, we can't do that"

I'm waiting for a phone call back about the 2nd monitor! they've gone to find out whats happened first 

[Sebby]

its out for delivery today, they resent it last night with a different firm, they are now using TNT.

Lucky they didn't tell you it was Amtrak.

[psp83]

here it is..

i went for the HP LP2475w

now 2 look for a new desk, this one is only temp as last one broke

Waiting for the PANTONE Huey to come through before i calibrate the monitor, brightness is down to 25 from 90, bit bright still thought.

Good to see your using a proper OS

[psp83]

what can i say.. i like beta testing things 






Vista runs fine on mine as the pc has quite high specs:
Intel Core 2 Quad-Core Q9450 Processor (2.66GHz, 12MB cache, 1333MHz FSB)
4096MB 800MHz Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM [4x1024]

[Rik]

You seem to have plenty of speakers, Paul.

[psp83]

Yep... just the way i like it..

But its better when the PC goes through the stereo at 700W 

Explosions in movies/games shake everything in the house lol.
