Computer Issues

This really sucks, HP has had my computer a tx2000 convertible tabletsince Friday the 27th and I have no real status updates from them other than the fact that they have received the system.  It took them 6 days just to get the box I was to send the computer in, to me. I called in a warranty claim because my HP Tablet PC was having two issues.  The first was that the system would periodically think that the pen was constantly clicking in random parts of the lower right hand corner of the screen when in laptop mode and plugged into AC power (not running off the battery).  The other issue was that the wireless communications module failed.  Wi-Fi was completely gone but Bluetooth would work most of the time.​

Update 9 years ago as of March 2021

I replaced this system with an HP TouchSmart tm2t, it has been much better, and the original system is still kicking away in its new home. The tm2t had the track pad go out while under warranty, but I was too tied up with work @ Midlands Honda to get it fixed before the warranty ran out, I currently use it with the stylus, or my fingers and the keyboard. I didn't like that track pad anyway, it was one of the original multi-touch models where the manufacturers did all sorts of cutesy things with it and it had the right and left buttons only separated by software, I hated that track pad.

I also got a Samsung 7 Series Slate, I think my first off-the-shelf Windows 8 tablet will need a detachable keyboard and a nubbin or track pad. This one also hasn't been problem free, the Ethernet port on the dock is out, I'll replace this one under warranty when I take vacation, so I won't miss it.
