I'm a rx7 owner. My friend is coming back from college tomorrow for spring break and he wanted to check out the rotary scene. We'll be hanging around in Union City, are you guys still doing the Krispy Kremes meet? Are we welcome to come by and look at some 8's?

he installed the new mobo, after asking me "what kind of computer is that?"

he left without being able to get the monitor to show anything. he suggeted i call dell back and submit a new ticket. I turned the monitor off and back on, fixed.

Wow, they don't make techs like they used to. I use to work for Creative Labs back in college in Oklahoma, and recently I called them for tech info and the technician was going by a checklist.

This guy was nice enough, but had no clue how to take apart a tower. I ended up helping him label connections and showed him how to check that everything was plugged in correctly.

When the computer would POST but the monitor showed no imput I knew I'd be able to fix it so I told him he could take off.


oh yeah, his wife and little kid were in his car the whole time and wouldn't come inside the house. I was too leary to even ask him why they came with him. When I asked if she would want to come in he said "Oh, she never goes into a client's house", making me think he always takes them with him.

Hell, they can have a little business going....while he fixes the computer, she can do cleaning work.
