Yup, thats the boilerplate "craigslist moron". Offers everything under the sun for nothing and if he spends all day fixing it and makes it worse, then the job's on him !

I am willing to work at an hourly rate of $20 if you have many issues and would not like to pay the flat fee for each of them. In some cases this can save you money.
I am willing to negotiate any of these prices (please keep it reasonable)
I work out of my home in Davis and do not own a car. I would be happy to bike to your home (if you live in Davis) if you can't/aren't willing to bring your computer here.
I would be happy to drive out to Sacramento but may not be able to do so immediately as I would have to borrow a friend's car. I would charge $10 for gas as well.

At least he's honest... I suppose...

READ:
I CAN ASSURE YOU THAT I TAKE PRIDE IN MY WORK AND I AM JUST AS SKILLED AS YOUR LOCAL COMPUTER REPAIR SHOP.

THIS TYPE OF WORKS REQUIRES ME TO HAVE MY TOOLS HANDY AND A THEREFORE I DO NOT DO MOBILE COMPUTER REPAIR MOST OF THE TIME.ALL PC'S MUST BE DROPPED OFF AT MY LOCATION

Hello I offer password removal for all windows operating systems, XP, Vista, Win7 rather be PC or Laptop.

I take pride in my work so don't worry about any problem's what so ever.

the rates are $20.00 each for all Windows based computer's.



Thank you

Cody L.

=================================================

I'm not sure what kind of tools Cody needs to reset passwords because I do it with one boot disc. Maybe that's what he has but it's probably hard for him to ride his bicycle to the customers location while holding a CD in one hand and trying to steer his bike with the other.

I REPAIR HP PAVILLION LAPTOPS (Hamptons)

http://newyork.craigslist.org/lgi/cps/1735018331.html

If you have an HP Pavillion Laptop( with Vista o.s.) that has been affected by a virus that appears to be an AntiVirus program, usually Anti Virus Soft or Anti Virus 7.Your operating system has been corrupted and your laptop is not working properly or at all.I CAN REPAIR, quickly and completely bringing your laptop back to its original condition, when purchased without the virus and the new operating system installed(Vista)

You can send it back to HP or a computer store and pay up to $ 450.00 plus postage and possibly a week or 2 waiting period or have it back the day after I receive it.PICKUPS are extra...I prefer dropoff in East Hampton. THIS WILL COST YOU $150.00( you pay nothing if not repaired)

E-mail Michael-mgeller1943@yahoo.com or telephone (631) 377-2962

Obviously this guy has HP restore disks, and nothing else. So if you have an HP with Vista and you have a virus, he will reformat your drive and reload the base O/S disk (that you most likely already have) for $150.

Wow, what a moron.

Not even. He probably only works on the one with restore partitions. :D
 
These people can't even type correctly. It would take them 30 minutes to change directories from the command prompt...UNREAL.

I already know how the rest of the United States feels about our Southern intellect. If this is what's going on everywhere else, I'm scared to look at the ads from Mississippi.... :(

...goss
 
loaner:

"Payment is to be made immediately after repairs are completed in the form of moonshine in unmarked mason jars."
 
I'll diagnose repair Mac or PC hardware and Windows and Max OS systems, Linux, or recover lost hard drive data
I can set up networks for you. $10 to $25 dollars, Cash only i can not take checks.
I'm over on barker cypress by Katy free way.


=========================================================

This is why I do not advertise on CL because the people that lurk there are the ones that would call a bozo like this to fix their junk.

I should post an ad that reads "I fix $10 computer repairs"

You know what...I think I'm going to do that right now just because I'm that bored.
