Many things have happened over the past week. But I believe the drowning of my ibook pales in comparison to this:
An Oregon man discovered earlier this month that his year-old Toshiba flat-screen TV was emitting an international distress signal picked up by a satellite, leading a search and rescue operation to his apartment in Corvallis, Oregon, 110km south of Portland.
"They'd never seen signal come that strong from a home appliance," said van Rossmann. "They were quite surprised. I think we all were."
Toshiba contacted Rossmann and offered to provide him with a replacement set for free, he said.
I guess this staples my impression of the Toshiba brand.
By the way, I'm using a Toshiba laptop now.
Ho Hum.
