Need help Removing a virus, setting up your system, increasing overall performance? Or know someone who does? Why go to the computer shop and get over charged when I can solve your problem for a fraction of that price. I work based on Donation and tips allowing you to name your own price. I prefer the computer be dropped off so I can use my home resources or I can also come out. Give me a call 775-219-1396 or email me.
Ask for Andrew.

I'm tempted to call and offer him pizza to repair a computer.

I think there's potential for a future Hall of Shame-er here.

I worry for the future of the English language sometimes....

hi my name is ***** i build computers and fix computers i do virus/spyware removals i wipe computers clean i upgrade computers i also make them faster i only charge 50 bucks and it takes about 1 hour great deal unbeatable if you need pc work send me a email with details or give me a call at 513-***-**** thanks for looking.

He massacres the English language and he'll "wipe your computer clean" for "50 bucks". He sounds like a one man wrecking crew! God forbid if anything of importance is on your drive.

Here's another one I saw today. Prices are dropping, although I still think trading a slice of pizza for PC repair is the best deal we've seen.

Computer repair for only $20 not a penny more

Wow, I can get my laptop with a damaged motherboard and lcd fixed up like brand new for only $20.... not a penny more!!! I need to find out who he uses as a hardware vendor.

You'd think they would at least pay someone to get the English right for the ad?

There is absolutely no chance I would ever use someone who puts 'ur' in an advert instead of you're.

How about 'your'? That is the context I see 'ur' most often.

Discrete Computer Repair
I don't fix and tell.
Privacy served since 1986
Call **** 818 ***-****

Pssssst! I just worked on Jessica Simpson's computer! You should see her tax return!

Or maybe he means "I will sneak in your back door to repair your computer. Save the embarrassment of your neighbors finding out that I fixed your computer."

Imagine if a nanny advertised herself by saying "I do not molest the kids that I look after. No criminal record since 1995".

Maybe he means he schedules scans of Spybot, Defrag, and virus scans nightly.

That's a pretty advanced pizza tech.

 

[Xander]

I'm betting on a pirate version of GoBack. Highly advanced!
