I'm sorry to tell you this, but at LEAST 50% of the computer related companies
I deal with handle customer service exactly as you've described it.  I don't
expect anything else from them anymore.  I currently maintain a couple of
Packard Bell machines (all out of warrenty) but haven't had your type of
problems, so I can't comment on them.
