Better Luck At a Garage Sale

So The company I work for, of course was suckered into buying a computer with the Global S. It happens to be a Lenovo computer. It comes with a HDD, (even though I have heard Hexagon representatives, praise that you have an SSD) 2 X 8GB of Ram. When talking to them, I always hear "You should have more RAM" but everytime that I responded "We got the computer from you" They quickly respond "Well, That should be sufficient, that's what's on my computer" Rolling eyes Anyway I ordered more RAM actually HYPER <<< something like that, DDR4. That's what this Junk calls for. So I plug them in, Turn on the PC, beeps 3 times, and nothing, tried everything even take the little battery out and put it back. Nothing. So I went to the Lenovo website, so it turns out, there only a couple of companies that the memory sticks are compatible with this computer, so had to return the sticks and take a restocking fee loss. I did upgrade the HDD to an SSD. I have ranted on this before. They sold them a plate that didn't fit the CMM, The tool changer was not adjustable, it stood high and proud, but in the way of Calibration ball, had to take that off and on, timewaster, So now I am just waiting for the other Ram to come in, Just throwing this out there, if your ever in the market to buy a new machine. Do your homework or you might get bamboozled.
  • Don't get all crazy on me. I'm venting because, I feel that this owner did not properly get the right equipment for his company, even the representative of brown & sharpe was here with the salesman, and said this was poorly done. It just needs to be noticed for the unaware, that's all. You have helped me out a bunch. I have mentioned in other post good things. This Post is for the Bad. That's why it's in OFF TOPIC. Even with said his peace and his 2 cents. I don't know if Hex, is cheap? understaffed? or what? They can't even keep up with this sight. I have a case open with an Adaptive Line Scan, My result? Don't use it. That's really not acceptable. This is an old bug that was reported in 2016. I know this is a high tech software and I know it has its flaws. I just think that instead of relying on the customers intelligence of your product that your selling, Here's an idea how about relying on your own?
