Sunday: Took computer in to Computer Geeks Hawaii (advertised on the radio “$75 to fix”). The guy said the computer would be ready by Tuesday.
Tuesday: No word from computer guy, so called him at 11:00 am. He said "It will be ready sometime this evening..." He couldn't give a definite (or even a round-about) time. He called at 6:00 pm saying it will be ready by 7 pm!! Picked up computer.
Wednesday: Computer got spyware. The guy said Leslie “allowed it”. Dropped off computer at the guy’s house which is farther than his office!!!
Thursday: Got computer back in the evening. Two problems: Problem no. 1) Cannot get into internet because “proxy server won’t allow”. Called Jalna and figured this out: go to Internet options/advanced settings and select “no proxy” “go directly to internet”. That fixed problem no. 1. Problem no. 2) Cannot get pictures or images in e-mail; only got X’s. Left message on computer guy’s voicemail at 8 p.m. No call back.
Friday (today): Got a call back at 9:45 am. Took computer back (3rd time) at 11:00 am. Waited while computer guy fixed it.
Hopefully: The End

at least he only charged me $79...but wait, didn't the radio say $75??
Hahahaha. I'm pretty sure the radio said $75.
nothing as frustrating as dealing with computer problems; i hope your computer gets fixed this time; let us know...
Oh, oh!! Well, hopefully it is fixed now and won't give Les any more problems....
Rand and Betty, so far so good.
$75 + tax
you should give the boss man a nudge on twitter @SuperGeeks. I bet that would get it solved quickly.
Nat, aha!
