Lenovo laptop problems had to send in laptop 4 times to depot to be fixed what do you suggest me doing now?

Lenovo laptop problems had to send in laptop 4 times to depot to be fixed what do you suggest me doing now?
I bought my lenovo laptop about 4 month ago and I have had to send it in for repairs 4 times within this time period and had to spend hours and hours talking to the customer service reprentatives. I have only had the laptop in my possesion for maybe a month and a half out of the 4 months. I have talked to the managers too without any resolution. What do you guys suggest me doing?

If the issue is still not resolved, file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. Once you open a file, the company has to resolve the issue, otherwise they will get a bad mark on their record.
2 :
get a full refund and buy somewhere else
3 :
you probably got a lemon, sue the manufactuer and then by a new one from Dell

Dude, sounds like you got a crappy one. But you don't have to make another mistake by buying ANOTHER PIECE OF CRAP from Dell! When you are ready to buy a new system, go to www.stupidcheapcomputers.net. I buy all of my stuff from them, and everything is Vista ready. I bought a complete, new system from them with a warranty for LESS than it would cost me to build it myself or order a custom one from the manufacturer. You can use my frequent buyer code: ATX926. That will get an additional 10% discount at checkout. I have NEVER had any problems with anything that they have sold me and their customer service is outstanding. Those guys blow my mind. Good luck!

not much, ebay is probably your best bet need more info, model? year? From what you said id give it 300-400 range maybe less
2 :
first it depends on if you want to sell to a store that refurbs and resells or if you want to sell it on something like craigslist. Without knowing the exact specs of your system beyond what you told me like the cpu speed the video type hard drive size. If you do not know these things go to a computer resaler and act as if you know everything about it so they dont kick you. Computer salesmen are the new used care salesmen because like cars many people dont know enough about what they have to bargan a good deal. Like cars they depreciate with age and you will get more money from a private buyer than you would from a resell operation as a personal sale is going to be used and a resaler of course wants to sell it and make a profit so you may also want to see if you can find your model laptop for sale used and try to sell it to a private person for less as you are not a computer tech and your word hold less worth on how it works than a professional, from a buyers standpoint. IMO i would think that you could POSSIBLY get between 2/3 to 3/4 the price you paid (if it is only a couple months old and is in good shape) now if you do not have a copy of windows to restore the computer then take off at least $100 from that price as windows is VERY expensive unless you have purchased professional software before its probably the most expensive piece of software you will ever have to buy. if you have a windows product key sticker on the bottom of the laptop then it may not be that big of a problem. In all i would do some more research on this as the information you gave is not enough to get a good estimate of price. EVERYTHING matters, screen size, screen type, memory, Hard drive size, cpu brand and speed, Video type (dedicated or shared) and speed on that measured in the memory and gpu speed, optical drive (is it a dvd rom, cd burner, dvd burner, dvd rom/cd burner, cd/dvd burner combo, lightscribe technology or other type of label making burner), wireless card type (a,b,g,g+,n-draft) even input and output ports like hdmi number of USB ports, even more than i have mentioned. otherwise you dont know what you really have. so if you can go to the store you purchased it at act likea buyer and write down all these speqs about the computer you have and then ask again as it will get you a very precise number. The easiest way is to discount the price by 1/4 post it on craigslist and see if someone bites. If you need money now and want to sell it right away ill buy it for $200 + shipping so you would have $200 in your pocket right away :-).

Lenovo R400 Laptop

Lenovo R400 Laptop takes much longer to charge after upgrading to Windows 7?
Hey guys, I just reimaged my Lenovo R400 model, upgrading from Windows XP to 7. This is a service done by my high school, and they have reimaged all of the students' computers (we're a laptop school). However, prior to the upgrading my computer took about 2-3 hours to charge. Now it is taking forever, like 5 hours. Does anyone know why? Thanks.

The OS has nothing to do with your charge time. The older the battery gets the longer it will take to charge. It is just coincidence that your noticing longer charge time. The new OS may be causing your LT to run at higher performance using more power, but it has no physical effect on your battery.
