What is the Secret to getting someone not completely F***Ing retarded on the support

[Mirage]

Lines, because after 3 total RMA's (The first one actually did something but that was back for a dead GPU, but who knows maybe the cause is something on the GPU again) I am getting fed up enough to wish I was in california to go beat the support techs with my still failing laptop.

Seriously, is there ANY official ASUS people on this forum that are even remotely useful?

No .. I mean I love this 'bar'.

Feelings? Pour more LN2, cures all.

I personally, you can ask my wife (haha), look upon emotions as weaknesses
except for two, love and empathy. The shame is not in an emotion but
in it's control then over logic. It is forbidden, of myself, for myself.
[Candid? ... then I would not be repeating it .. also forbidden .. ]

In summary, Emotions are like Money Here. Worthless.

My apologies OP ... but as you can see above 'the fix' is in.

No, Nope. You won't say anything that has any value in my life. What you just wrote is the definition of a psychopath.

Mirage, I have word that we have a motherboard for G73Sw on hand. From your previous repair history, it looks like this may be what you need to fix the issue. I'll send you a PM with the details.

Mostly irrelevant since today's the 21st and I go back to college on the 25th and i -NEED- my laptop for work up there. (Even if I got it back I'd have to spend a day or two reinstalling since inevitably they always seem to wipe the hard drive for whatever back-assward reason they can come up with) So unless theres a way I can get a -quick- repair while up at college (I don't even know if there's one of those fed-ex RMA centers up there in utica in new york) I can't afford to send it away even with all the little problems.

(For clarification -> 3 days shipping - > 2 days of screwing about -> 2-3 hours to actually replace the motherboard -> 3 days of waiting for the ship back, comes out way past the 25th?)

Additionally the post that says sent yesterday information, No PM.

So unless I can get it back at the latest the 27th, I don't see the point in trying.

Though ASUS could always be nice and just send me the motherboard, because I know how to disassemble and replace things.

Another question, is this going to be an actual replacement or like many horror stories that i've heard where they shove a refurbished board into my comp and then return it only to break again?
