Very fortunate for this, but the housing for the LCD screen was damaged on my dell. I might just take it into a laptop repair shop and see what they say for how much it would cost. If it is trivial, I'll do it, but I still want WF to cover it, and eventhough I got my computer back, I am far from happy. You might contact your states attorney general, they might be able to help you resolve a claim. I think if a class action lawsuit appears against WF we might give him more than community service. He is a fraud, and I am glad he was shut down, but I feel bad for those who weren't lucky enough to get their computers back
I just don't see a lawfirm wanting to tackle this on a class action basis, and I'm not sure the numbers are even there to make it worthwhile. Even 1000 laptops at 200 each is only 200K...peanuts for a class action attorney.

Thinking it might help to either get a local attorney to monitor the situation, and push the issue re restitution, and let the county know we are serious, or, worst case, we just keep pushing Ed Jones to not take the easy way out on this one.

On a related note, I'll know in about 2 weeks or so what I was trying to do to "help" publicize Mr. Forrester and his antics is going to come to fruition..
