There's a website with the Lemon Laws in the state of Ohio.  It really depends on who you bought it from though (ie dealer or private party).\n\nhttp://www.yourlemonlawrights.com/state_laws/ohio.htm

best buy has a lemon policy where if you had warranty from them and they repaired it 3 or 4 times( i am not sure how many times) they allow you to buy a new laptop for the original purchase price.

not in California.  Different states have different laws.

if it's broken and its not your fault, you should be able to take it to where ever you bought it and get a brand new one for free!

There are special facilities that do recycle electronic equipment, but these facilities frequently charge a fee for the service.\n\nUnless the keyboard is broken I suggest saving it, you ever know when you might need a spare. Accident's happen.

Dude what your talking about doesn't really exist in the consumer market.  That's like A.I. recongnition electronics and it's still being built and tested.  You'll have to wait a while.

Well it seems you gave her a good deal on the computer and even helped her out thus far ( which you didnt have to do). if she wanted a top notch computer with a warrenty she should have gone to a store. So basically if you wanted to be really nice you could fix it ( reformat like someone mentioned, which is easy enough), but you are certainly not obligated to fix it by any means.

If it's that new, it could still be under warranty.  Call tech support again and be firm with them.  These companies usually won't do anything for you until you get nasty with them. Like insurance, the idea is that most people will give up and then they don't have to fix it.  If it's not warrantied, CD / DVD drives are pretty cheap these days.  You can get a decent DVD burner for $75.  I used to do PC repair and we only charged $35 to install those kinds of drives.  So the bill won't be terrible.  Before you take it in, try going to start -> run ->  type "msconfig" and click OK.  Uncheck the box that says load startup group items.  Restart. It may be that there is a software conflict and this will disable all unnecessary software.  See if that helps.\n\nGood luck.

If delivered outside of CA, probably not. If in CA, yes if the product(s) are not exempt. You can read more by following the link below

It was a local electronics shop, which has since (thankfully) gone out of business. They broke a video camera of mine while doing a simple repair, and then laughed about it and refused to replace or repair it. They said that further repairs would cost extra, even though the new damage was clearly their fault. They actually laughed about the way the camera fell off one of their work tables while a couple of young repair guys were rough-housing around and having a mock fight. After raising a bit of hell, I finally got it fixed, but the fix was only temporary, and the camera was ultimately fried. \n\nDid I go back? No way. And apparently, neither did anyone else. They've been out of business for quite some time now.

contact the manufacturer of the device.

It is up to the store on a case by case basis but seeing as how it was a month after that the price reduction occured, I believe that they are correct here. If it was to occur only a few days after then there might be a case. There would be no way for them to know that the price would drop by such a large price. \nUsually what occurs is that the manufacturers put out a new model of the same product and the retailer reduces the cost of the old model to make way for the newer one. Otherwise, it could be up to higher management to make the decision as to pricing.\nThey wouldn't have done it to be malicious but you can ask them that the next time you want to buy something they might do you a better deal. \nIn the electrical retail market, pricing rarely stays the same for products due to the fact that the get superceded and replaced often.\nDon't blame the store but do ask them for the best price next time (use cash, folding cash not card) and ask them if this product will be replaced in the near future or if it is new to the market.\n\nSorry buddy, but you might just have to put this one down to bad timing.\n\ndenalbert suggested take it back and get a refund - after a certain length of time, this probably won't be an option as there is only a small window for refunds based on 'change of mind' Unless there is a legit problem they won't do this.\nironstu3 said - tell them it's faulty. Most places will test this before the refund is given Once again they won't just go 'oh of course we'll believe that this expensive tv is faulty just because you say it is, here is your money back'\n\nYou can try the old 'changed my mind' approach and see if it works for you. My old company wouldn't, not after a month.\n\nWhy don't you ask them to see if they have any bonuses or freebies that they can give you to sweeten the deal. DVD player etc. Or a gift voucher to be spent in store next time?\n\nGOOD LUCK!!!!!

No, it is not a state law. It is, however, a common company policy. Since CA is a "work at will" state, your employment may be terminated for any reason.
