The computer advice/repair thread

[Cobalt]

I thought that I would start a thread where you can ask for advice or help related to computers.

I've been working on them for a long time now and I figured I'd share my help with anyone who needs it.
I am certified by CompTIA too.

You can also ask about electronics in general.

Would you ever recommend an apple computer to someone?

Lol. Funny h2s.


I'm actually going to be switching to a Mac in the near future. Been with pcs since commodore 64s and then when my dad got a job with intel 15 years ago we ONLY had pcs now intel is in the macs and it kills me to see how effortlessly the Mac runs. Especially while working with photoshop/Lightroom. Not to mention the new IMac is aesthetically amazing.

Not stoked about working with different keys shortcuts though.

Been a Mac user since the early 90s. For 95% of the people out there, it's just so much more intuitive and fluid in it's usage and the changeover from PC to Mac takes almost no time at all, according to my friends (incuding IT guys) who have made the switch for their home computer.

Lol, lets not make this into a flaming war. I have my opinions on Mac's and I'd care not to go there.

Just to solidify my position, no.

Haha. Thanks to the freedom of internet speech, we all get to have our opinions, no matter how right, wrong, or subjective they are.

I probably won't be posting in here for help though... it seems my macs have never had any problems in 20 years. Huh.
