PC Magazine used to do an annual survey of Customer Satisfaction.

I just did a search and it looks like the last one they did was in 2006.

Sad to see it leave the Olympics, but it's also not great that the US doesn't send it's best players. Nor do other countries that have MLB players.

I had an issue with a Toshiba laptop in 2008. It was about 13 months old. I had purchased a three year warranty. I would advise...

I guess the discussion is moot anyway, since Microsoft feels like a few of you. They have rejected my Connect item, though it was interesting that the number of votes...

I'm not trying to stifle progress here. And 55 votes on Connect mean that it's more than a little important to people. someone even had a great comment that they'd...
