He told me the cost was $200 labor plus $35 for the part. Plus he installed (again without my permission) software: CCleaner, Dream Aquarium, Infra Recorder and Microsoft Office 2007 WTF? Later he called me back and said he fixed it (without my permission), the problem was a faulty memory module. He told me he would diagnose it and call me back.

It was a one man operation, the repair guy was dressed in cargo shorts, a Hawaiian shirt and boat shoes. The workbench consisted of a plywood board with a stool in front to sit on. The place looked dirty and cluttered, you could barely walk around because computer cases, monitors, computer parts and electronic equipment where scattered all over the floor.

The beer went all over the keyboard to the point where I could pour it out from the keyboard. "I think it's a fantastic place to visit!
