And...if you could let us know how you get on with the vendor in
question (and tell us who they are), it'd be muchly appreciated. The
(limited) shops around here only sell things at grossly inflated prices,
so I have to take the gamble and purchase online from interstate when I
want computer hardware.
I'm hoping they offer good service in this instance, as judging by your
account they've ****pped you a product which is completely DOA.
