First of all I never lied to them I just refused to discuss processor speed.

And those folks would have been there answering the phones whether I called or not. Furthermore if american business is operating on a profit margin so slim my call can negate any gain then this country is in very deep doo-doo. Should I apologize for not being able to afford major upgrades ? Should I apologize for needing a printer amnd trying to make what is available to me work to my advantage even if it was not designed as such ? There are a great many people in this country who piece together viable machinery from what they can access. Why should I consider my computer as any different ? After all it's mine.
