Yes, I realise that now. :-(

It's brand new. This was supposed to be the initial set-up. That's why I am
so fed up. I wanted my husband to get his shiny new system, all set up and
working, as his 80th birthday present, as soon as he got home; instead of
which he hasn't got a computer to use at all, since I have dismantled the old
system. And he is my transport. If the store will immediately accept
responsibility, I can I suppose get a taxi (cab) there, and then back, but I
am still fed up.
Again, thanks, guys.
