I'll bet the upgrades for the Packard Bell were very costly unless you used
generic parts. I personally hate PB because they tend to go crazy the day
after your warranty goes out. Then when you call Tech Support the first
thing they ask you for is your Credit Card number.

That's no way to do business!!!
