Poor Defenseless Geek Squad

I agree wholeheartedly, I don't know how anyone can get that impression that people follow others, especially me. Like minded people tend to think alike. I try and do what ever I can to help people, and I stand up for what I think is right/fair, and what I believe in. I will speak up if I see something isn't right, or others are being misguided/mistreated, even if it doesn't have anything to do with me, or my company, It's just the right thing to do.

Posts like that make me want to vomit. Enough with the feel-good self-righteous martyr nonsense. Intelligent people can see right through it to the fact that you're just trying to needlessly draw attention to yourself in the name of some nameless cause. Get over yourself.
 
geeksmobileusa, you don't seem to be welcome here by other members. Calling-out others and name-calling does not reflect well on you or your business. Are you here to contribute or stalk ACGI?

If it weren't so late, I'd scold you in 300-400 words.

strange! something does not feel right about this, did he get banned, can bruce let us know, but at least we can get this forum back on track now hes gone, goodbye to bad rubbish. i am of to party now lol
 
I have a small company and as soon as people find out that there is an alternative to the GS and the others, I instantly have a new client. Almost everyone that comes to me has a horror story about GS. I think some of it is the individual attention I give to my clients and treat them as if they were the only client that I have. :)
 
Wow, I can't believe we actually had a GS guy on here trying to defend that sorry company.

Where are the forum rules? Is there a rule about name calling? If not, there should be...

I agree.


Guess what was left in the CD drive of a customer's laptop

I have also used the GS CD and was not impressed. The only thing I liked about it was the GUI and some of the auto run features. As for software there are better tech CDs out there. I think its funny how they protect it like its magic...lol

He has been globally ignored. Like how you can set him to ignore in your profile, but it has been applied to everyones account.
 
While Hell Bans are funny I don't like how it can break page counts. Before my post this topic had 6 pages, but if you clicked on 6 you just went back to 5 (Edit: Still broke even after this post). It can be confusing.

It might be best to just bust out some SQL and delete all of his posts.

He had been getting on my nerves way before this thread started, but I wasn't sure if it was just me until now. I know I could have set him to ignore, but sometimes its just fun reading some of his amazingly stupid comments. But on top of that, that is not the reason I hang out at these forums. If I wanted to hang out with his kind, there are millions of other forums I could hang out at.

Another small GS story. We had a customer come to us trying to get a RAM upgrade in a Mac Mini. Granted they are not the easiest machines to add RAM to, especially for Mac rookies or home users. But before this guy came to us, he had went to GS. They told him they stopped doing RAM in Minis since a tech hurt himself trying to add RAM to one.

Other than that, I find its not necessary to provide any kind of comparison against GS. In my opinion its almost like getting involved in political mud-slinging, but if it works for you others so be it. In the end everything works out as it should. GS just makes me look all the better to anyone who has had a bad experience with them. Plus in these unstable financial times, shoppers are getting more and more savvy without having to provide price comparisons with GS.

I rarely touch Mac's but we did a mini recently, now we call them the "HellRaiser Puzzle Box". If you have seen the movies you would get the joke. ;)
 
mac's are fun and interesting. we should all as techs open one up and get to know them a little bit, because they are growing in the computer market.
 
And just to add to that, did you know that if they cannot fix your computer at the store it is sent off to Kentucky to a mass repair shop, where some of the ex-employees have posted to the web, that even the managers in Kentucky don't know anything about computer repair. They just want to move as many as possbile as quick as possible thru the line and techs on the line are just out of burger king..its kinda scary. Just check out this website it'll open your eyes..http://www.complaintsboard.com/complaints/geek-squad-c4106.html
