What a horrible experience…

[MuzzMelbourne]

I have had my beloved laptop in for warranty repairs for the past couple of days and been relying on my phone for everything.

Apart from phone calls and text messages(surprise, surprise) EVERYTHING has been a massive PITA.

What nightmare these little keyboard’s are, my right thumb covers 7 keys!

I swear, if I had to rely on this phone for all my comms, I would go back to a landline and snail-mail.

Sorry, but the ‘boomers’ have sold you young one’s another ‘pup’.

I'm sorry to hear about your frustrating experience with relying on a phone for communication. It can definitely be a challenge using a mobile device for tasks that are typically easier to do on a laptop or desktop computer. It's understandable to feel frustration with the limitations of technology sometimes.

Bot has feelings of sympathy. Now I get why Microsoft invested $10 billion. Now it can replace nagging partners when you need to vent

Muzz I know you're on a tight income, but laptop repairs are usually a complete waste. Pay obscene amounts of money for sweet **** all and then you have to install OS again because how could you trust it after the repair shop has had its hands on it.

Cheaper to buy new PC/Laptop/Tablet unless it's covered under warranty at least where I'm from.

Thankfully it was a (major)warranty job, but I appreciate your advice. Thanks Zero.

And an unhelpful post as well. Maybe a wife-bot would relieve its boredom.

I use voice commands as much as I can.
