St. Pete Computer Repair By Abacus Computer Repair/Data Recovery 727-217-0891

Woman comes in with Laptop that she purchased a year ago from my company. She calls first inquiring about a motherboard for the laptop after bringing it into Best Buy. Best Buy told her that the motherboard was bad.

 

After a lot of disparaging comments about my company, Microsoft etc I look at it. Her Dog had bitten thru the wire which she tried to fix but messed up. After checking Motherboard I FIXED her laptop by Fixing the Power Wire she screwed up.

 

This Woman didn’t want to pay the $60 dollar bill, even though Best Buy said the Laptop was gone. That is the 2^nd dell that Best Buy said was bad but was fixed at a nominal charge.

 

 

People wonder where the good techs go and I for one am thinking of a new line of business. It seems the DUMBER the client the more abusive they are. The 22 year old woman who informed me that Anti Virus Software was not need in computers.

 

Let’s see ID 10 T  a ID Ten T client a day, anybody figure out IDTENT, ID10T

When unplugging laptop from power my resoultion would go unreadable. Simple fix is to turn off the Intel Power Saver located by clicking on there Icon lower right. Now when the laptop is unplugged it'll still keep its resoultion. This is for Windows 7,

I installed Windows 7 on a Lattitude d610 Laptop with a Gig of Ram. Fast, Fast, I'm remoting into my Vista system, and playing a Office Video Feed. This is what We had hoped for, and Microsoft has delivered. Looks a lot like Vista, but without as many of the security problems. The biggest problem with Vista was Memory use. Windows 7 has that fixed. This test version is running with very few problems.

 

Upgrading from Windows XP to Windows 7 is NOT possible, only upgradeable from Vista. Hopefully Microsoft makes this upgradeable from XP, sort of make up for the screw ups in Vista. I'll reccomend this upgrade for the security and ease of use. Lot's of new features, and fixes on the ones that didn't quite work. Good Job Microsoft.

                  I rarely comment badly about a company, but Verizon is the exception. Verizon’s service in Florida is so poor the State of Florida Fined them Millions of Dollars because of there service lapses. 3 weeks ago a client asked the Verizon Telephone Repairman who he recommended for high speed internet. His answer: Anybody but Verizon. Yesterday I’m doing a wireless network job. The service person promised to call right back after resetting there modem. You guessed it, NO CALL FROM VERIZON.

 

This company is losing clients quickly with no end in sight . I’m thinking of charging double for Verizon wireless installations. It always takes double or triple the time compared to Brighthouse or Knology. My recommendation: Run from Verizon. This company will do nothing but SCREW you & your wallet.

Abacus Computer will be on holiday hours December 22- thru Jan 3. Please visit the website for more details.
