You know what...you do what works for you. If it works and you are happy. Good. I just offered the same advice that I have found normally will work for my customers without a lot of cost or hassle. Just because you or anyone else has a different preference or has experience with a different piece of hardware or setup...does not mean that the one I recommend does not work. *note to self: NO more FREE computer advice for ANYone on this board*
Must have been dreaming when I said that, cause I sure don't recall.
LOL Well the 'undercover' buying was actually just what it said. I managed a computer store at the time and took one of the techs with me and we went around to the competition posing as a couple ....she pretended to only use computers at work....I pretended to be an ignorant ass who didn't know shit but wanted to be in charge. (she had to walk away several times during discusions with the sales guys because she couldn't keep a straight face) Yeah....This Xwhatever is the best one out there....yada yada.... By the end of the convo.... well the Ywhatever is actually better than the Xwhatever but it costs less money too.... and on and on. sorry...can't recomend ANYone trust the pimple crew at one of those electronic stores...not only do they lie their asses off...but they charge MORE for most stuff and then try to sell extras 99.99% of people simply do NOT need.
