I have recieved your shipping address vi PM macgyver2, and will be makeing the purchase from amazon.com, and having the item shipped directly to you upon release.

I see wwoods was online 1 week ago by his profile

he gave a screen shot of the purchase and stated I should get it on the 22nd, I rescheduled a doctors apt to wait home for it, I read about delays hearing no word I waiting on Monday instead of being with my wife. I sent him PM's and an email, all very nice just asking if everything was good and if he had tracking info so I knew when to be home. Anyway hope it don't show up today as I have been up all nite with kidney pain (any doctors in the house).

I might sell one of my USB HDD's to start collecting money to buy 7. Any idea's how to raise quick money with a laptop? My artwork is selling but that money goes to pay for Adobe and to buy the wife stuff. Computer tech work well until the doctors manage this pain better I don't trust myself with someone elses "broken" computer while on heavy pain killers.

wwoods, your online, I have seen your account active on other forums but you avoid this site at least with your account. That old saying "seems to good to be true it usually is" well I guess even an honest man can't trust others online any more.

wwoods why you do it? why screw with me? did I catch you doing illegal things online and you figured out who I am so its payback?

when I was younger I was caught with hacking tools, I hadn't used them just had them, and I was offered a chance to help stop people that scam or steal others with computers. I took the job, I felt good about what I was doing, I helped get online preditors away from computers, I helped catch identity thieves. Basicly I was an undercover police officer that worked on the web. My work got the army's attention and again offered a great job and I took it. I learned loyalty, honor, respect and other values I might have been lacking. I took these values, my skills and went to work with cyber crimes units of the US Govt then I got deadly sick and didn't touch a computer for almost 2 years, I came back to the online world and wanted to be like everyone else and now i find the traits of criminals in the everyday "JOE" online.

wwoods, I honestly don't care about software, that's not the point the point is you had to lie to me thinking that's the only way I wouldn't pirate software. My job was to catch pirates (at least the ones making $$) and I needed them to trust me, so having and using pirated software was part of my work. I shouldn't have kept it, I was wrong but at least I was honest about it and did the right thing. Your avoiding this site and me isn't the right thing, heck you could have lied again saying a large bill came in and you need the money for it and things would have been cool but you can't even do that. I changed my schedule waiting for a package that was never sent to me, you screwed with my real life not just some harmless prank online, you even got my wife mad at me. I trusted you with my real address guess I "was" to trusting.


So even though I lost all respect I might have had on these forums cause I am upset at least I know I was honest, I know I deleted all the pirated or cracked software I had and it was a lot but at least I can let someone use my laptop or watch me on it and not wonder if they see I am stealing the software I have. I freed myself from the guilt I felt about it, so how do you feel wwoods?

I could go on and let my emotions write more but I won't. Sorry everyone for having to read this and if I am asked to leave these forums I understand and will do so with no fuss.

Sorry to say I do not know either of you. But

1. Trusting in another to give you something free, for any challenge/reason, on the internets is probably a bad idea.

2. Yes, giving ANYONE on the internet your home address is probably a bad idea.

Static, greetings. trust is a funny thing, you don't get it without giving it. My work bascily made me trust NO one, I came here when I only had a netbook to access the net while in the hospital and over a few months figured I could trust people here, for the most part I believe I can but I happen to find one person I can't.

macgyver2,


Where do you stand on your expiration date on which win7 version ?

Several of us here at SevenForums are disappointed with the promise & situation

Please don't give up hope entirely

" Doc "

I have 5 days left with my 3rd re-arm. Running Windows 7 Ultimate. I have not given up just frustrated. I couldn't stand Vista and the speed difference of 7 on here is major.

I have not been able to do any tech work with the meds I am currently on and I think I will be back in the hospital to have my kidney removed so I don't have to live on pain killers. I have been trying to figure out what I am going to do but life keeps me from coming up with a solution. I did take apart the laptop and added better thermal grease which has lowered my temp by a good 12-15 C which is good news.

Sorry this happened on these forums, I know its not something that looks good and I should have known better then this.

3 days left and still can't find a way to get a legit copy of windows 7. I tried to apply for the upgrade that this laptop came with but I guess I didn't do it on time or something cause I can't get the upgrade now.
