What you need to know about computer repair and you!

Hello, Introductions are in order for this first foray into blogging. I am a 20 year plus computer guy. I started this when the computer had two 5.25 inch drives, an 8 mhz(WOW) cpu (8086) and if you had a hard drive it would make a very heavy boat anchor. A 4000 name mailing list would take me most of the day and half the night to edit, sort and print. My first computer was a Zenith Z100 all in one,(green or amber screen),8Mhz (now 3.0Ghz +) 640K RAM and no hard drive.

Well enough nostalgia for now. The changes have been fast and plentiful and very interesting to keep up with. Computer repairing now is a matter of identifying the problem and replacing the bad part or installing new drivers or software. The one thing that is not so easy to replace or get new is the user. We are all different and have our likes and dislikes and ways of doing things. As a computer technician I need the user on my side. Sometime this is not easy but necessary. Hopefully this blog will help user and the technician agree on the task at hand, fix this @@@#%@@ thing.
