Gareth,

You've shown people no grace or manners in their attempts to help you in
this issue, even though reading that log you posted of your interactions
with Packard Bell you come off worse showing unhelpfulness and rudeness.

Alan Bell has offered to give you a harddrive for free, and to keep to
help you get out of this issue. You could at least show some manners by
saying thank you!

Laura
