The Toshiba's hard drive failed after one week. Exchanged it and the young person is back in business. He handled it with grace-much more than I show when one of my machines fails to even do a service boot. I also received my first comment from him on the blog. He knows what I write about him, and gives me lots of input, but now he's out there commenting.I laughed out loud when I saw this comment from my own son under my blog post:

My name is Tullus. I am the son of Andrea Weis. I am the one who got the AWESOME laptop for my birthday.
That all changed today.
I was trying to get onto my laptop. The first time I tried, it worked. When I tried the internet, it froze. It was connected to the wireless connection, and all was right in the world.
But, for some reason that I can't explain, when I tried to restart it, it wouldn't get past the standby phase on windows 7.
My mom fooled around with it, being the smartest one in the family dealing with technical issues. Well, she made a few calls, and somethings up with the hard drive or something.
So, tomorrow, I am sorry to report that she will be returning my laptop. It was a good laptop, and whatever went wrong with it....
IT WASN'T MY FAULT!!!!!

He was absolutely right-not his fault, it was the hard drive. So now he's reinstalling his favorite things on the laptop, like Skype and Picasa, and I realized something. I have my own little feedback person right in my own home. Hmmm. You'll be hearing more from him very soon.

Bravo, Tullus! Glad you are back in business. Give goanimate.com a try...my 6th grader loves it (actually a little too much).

Tullus rocks! How empowering to be able to put your own voice out there. I feel great things on the horizon.
