Thought I'd update. Got Windows installed without a hitch, Dell talked me through it. I debated whether to put Win 7 in since I was starting from scratch but worried some of my software might not work Everything went well except I couldn't find drivers for some things such as my wireless adapter so couldn't get on line. Called Linksys and they spent over an hour trying to get the driver in and finally did. That was the best part, finally getting on line and getting hit with a zillion MS updates. I have misplaced or lost some software. We moved here in March and I could not locate my Office disk, wireless mouse/keyboard software and a few other things, might have gotten lost in the move. I'm most concerned about Office 07. I paid for it. Dell says they can't help and I could try contacting MS and see if they would do anything. I haven't moved any of my files back yet. Otherwise, I feel like the computer runs better than when it was new. Things seem different, have to fool with fonts and views, but I'm amazed how effortlessly the machine runs. This computer always seemed to have a few 'glitches' but I was used to it. Now it seems so fast and smooth (of course there isn't much running on it yet.) I don't know how to thank everyone for all the support and help I received. You are the best friends anyone could ever ask for. I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks! Thanks from the bottom of my heart... Jane

After clearing cookies on my computer the other day, I had to sign in here again. I did, and it put me on the Houzz url. I went to the GW url, which I much prefer, and I wasn’t signed in. Not only that, but when I tried to sign in on GW, I couldn’t. But I was still signed in on Houzz. Makes no sense.

Let's not pretend that a tract or production builder taking advantage of the power dynamic for a bait and switch is unusual. It is close to the entire business model of many tract builders. If it is hard for you to imagine a tract builder showing a customer a drawing of a house that they know doesn't match the house that will get built, then you are not trying very hard because it happens all the time. In fact, I will argue that if nine out of ten people just say, "the house has still has plenty of windows," then he can turn adding windows he already promised into a profitable endeavor and even if he has to eat one in ten, it is still a great profit making tool for him. The OP notes, "We have already signed the drawings 6 months ago agreeing that these were our plans." Assuming that the OP actually did sign off on that drawing it seems something worth getting professional help from someone who is an expert in contracts...
