The Incredibles

2005-06-03 Thread Paul Weaver
A few weeks ago I mentioned that the installer on my copy of The Incredibles
wouldn't work on OSX as promised.

Being a patient and kindly man, more so in my senior years, I sent a polite
email to the support address provided in the instruction leaflet.  A reply
came back that they were the US-Canadian distributors, and I should approach
the Australian ones.  Thus corrected, I sent off another email, then
another, then another.   There were no replies to any of them.

New computer software comes with all sorts of dire warnings saying things
³If you open the package you give up all your rights.²  Undeterred I rang
the manager at Big W Spearwood yesterday and told him of my experience.  He
was sympathetic and couldn¹t have offered better service.  He said bring it
back with the purchase receipt and have him paged. He would authorise a full
refund.  So I did.

Kind regards, Paul.

I was in Big W the other day and saw a Disney computer game for "The
Incredibles"  It has the label "Built for Mac OS X 10.2"  So I parted with
$38.93.  Brought it home and tried to install it on one of the Macs running
with OS X 10.3.9.  Guess what?   Its installer doesn't want to run.  That's
incredible.  I did manage to get the program to run by clicking its Icon in
MacResources, but it's buggy.  Any polite suggestions would be appreciated.

Best wishes, Paul.
