Re: [Rant] Geeksquad Stinks!
I suspected it was such a rip off thing, it just seems common sense. The sad thing is how people get sucked in.
My roomy was too block headed or something to have me change out the thermal compound on his Compaq, he tried it himself and did something because it stopped working.
He refused to ask me, and since I have to live here, I kept quiet and let him have his foolish pride.
He ended up hiring someone in Clarksville to work on it, some shop, listen to this: When the system came back his bill was nearly 400 and they had replaced the motherboard and CPU, they CPU power header had burn marks on it where it had been shorted. I don't know if my roomy did it or the shop, but he clearly got ripped. He could have built a new system for that, but does he listen to me?
It is just sad that people are all being taken like this. And by lamers that don't know what they are doing.
