Do you think this is covered under my warranty?

I just have to ask. How did that happen? Did you accendentaly drop it onto a table saw, then push it through? That is a pretty clean cut.

My boss was mad at me for breaking his $20 Texas Instruments BA-35 Calculator so he asked me how much my Axim cost...I told him around $400....so he spiked it like a football...He then proceeded to tell me it could be fixed under my warranty...so I proceeded into the toolroom and made sure he would have to buy me a new one....

Wow, sounds like you have a "great" boss! All this over a $20 calculator? :)

Errmmmmm, where are you working at ? "Home for the insanely stupid" ? I would stay away from your boss as much as possible.....doesnt strike me as a -even moderately- smart guy.....

So, let me get this straight......your boss spikes the Ax you own and then informs you that it will be covered under your warranty......I'd read the fine print my friend.....and then you, decide that you'll make sure Dell replaces it so you saw it in half ?!?!?!? Again , you may want to read the fine print of the warranty!
I'd have made sure my boss and I drove to his bank while he got out the cash to replace the Ax...then, I'd have handed him back the 20 bucks for the calc!

You need to get a restraining order against the boss!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually I just ordered my new one today...and I got complete care and extendend warranty for 3 years....I don't think they cover angry bosses...so I'm going to always keep it within arms reach...I actually laughed about it when it happened...I knew he was gonna pay for it...and he did...I guess my boss was stressed due to the financing the company has to get...better the Axim is broken than me...or him....Axim's are replaceable...not people...
