not what I was expecting

I went shopping for a new laptop today, with my son, at a store that shall remain nameless (but it's initials are BB) and found another acceptable laptop.  Actually, I think it will work out very well. They also agreed to let me return the slightly used laptop that I'm dissatisfied with.  All very good.  The snag came when I asked them about transferring all of my data from the old unit to the new one.  My son had done this the last time, but since I had both computers right there, it seemed to make sense to let them do it.  They were willing and able to do the job, for a small fee, $100.00.  They told me the job would only take three or four days, then for some reason they revised that estimate to seven days.  The first time around it took my son about four hours so I was a little surprised.  Of course, it may be that they have a huge backlog of people waiting for this service, but I doubt it.  Since I really need a reliable computer by Saturday I decided on plan B.  I bought the new computer, brought both laptops home and my son will do the transfer tomorrow.  Then we will return the faulty computer.  Stay tuned.....
