702135 2008-09-03 00:56:00 No tech will be short of work as long as MS continues to do whatever it is that they are doing ;) Add to that the fact that Companies like telecom are running ad's for McAfee - the Ad with the Guy on a webcam saying how the Software stops hackers, spyware and viruses and with it it's safe to be on the internet now --- hands up how many Techs believe that load of :waughh: wainuitech (129)

702137 2008-09-03 01:17:00 Well almost, I cant find reason my old W98SE toshiba lappy conks out on network connection after a few minutes. It was fine on XP but with 64mb ram using the thing was a pain
Got latest 98 driver but googling for info showed up same frustration as I was having and Dlink not bothering to sort driver out. Dont think upgrading 7 yr old lappy worth it.
Computer techs will always have a job because some people dont have the skills to even join a forum and ask a question let alone wield a screwdriver.

I have learned a lot from the techs on here but wouldn't hesitate to take my PC to one if it was in need of expert help. I'm behind them 100% !

702140 2008-09-03 23:14:00 The HDD is more like the car boot rather than the gas tank.........or for those messier users, the floor.

I would say a person's stomach as it holds everything you put in like a pc harddrive.

And then the s*** is when your harddrive is to big and you have to get rid of some stuff.

Fatter the person equals bigger the harddrive!!!

702142 2008-09-04 10:05:00 What bugs me is we get customer that says their hdd contains years of their business data or important documents / photos ...

If it's so important, why didn't they do a backup of any kind?

Basically, because the O/S doesn't make them do it .

They just expect the PC to work, and to continue working for a long time . Not such an unreasonable request me thinks .
