Well I got an email back from the computer guy and I guess miscommunication ended up along the lines. Jay fixed it and the output on the adapter was too much for the laptop I guess and the extra heat caused the solder points to mess up. Jay resoldered the board and then I guess Tom was supposed to relay the fact that I needed to replace the adapter to me. I was never told this when I okayed the repair. I paid $120 for the repair, if I would’ve known that the adapter needed to be replaced I wouldn’t have done it. A new adapter (I guess the aftermarket one actually screwed with my mobo) through Sony would’ve been $89.99. I cannot afford that.

So after some strongly worded emails we’ve determined Tom is looking for an adapter for me to “price” I guess. I’m NOT paying for this. I refuse to do it and I want a refund for what he did on my motherboard because like I said before the cost is too much. I can buy a brand new laptop for $439 or something. A lower end one, which is what my laptop was used for. I paid $868 for this, which is why I wanted it fixed. I’m still steaming b/c I’m going to get screwed here, I really am and there’s not a single thing I can do about it. He’s already got my $120.

I’m waiting for the next email to see where we can go from here. I really needed my laptop before going to MD and now I’m not going to have it.
