Elgin Computers is NOT Ottawa Computers.  Lori is an employee, but was the
owner of Ottawa Computers.  She did NOT go bankrupt, but made a business
decision to work with EC.

Warrantees are honored by EC - and they REPLACE without any fee!

Scott first sent email to them saying he purchased the drive from Ottawa
Computers.  The fact is that Scott did NOT purchase the drive from EC.  He
made slanderous comments about Lori, and race-hate comments about people
from the middle-east.

As you could clearly see from posts about EC 'PRIOR' to Scott's, EC is
reputable and Lori has a reputation for treating her clients very well.

Don't let one illiterate effect your opinions about a company with a good
reputation for treating their customers right.

They replace defective components - they do not charge any restocking fee. 
Has ANYONE here EVER been charged a restocking fee by EC????  No.  Scott
will pay the price for slander.

Most likely, it would not be in EC's best interest to comment publicly
about an illiterate radical, but to deal with it on a professional level. 
As an honest business owner, I would be concerned about this type of
slander, and would immediately contact a lawyer.

I stand firmly behind Elgin Computers in this matter.  They have given no
reason for anyone to treat them poorly.  Think about it...how would you
deal with an irrational illiterate?
