Dear Help Station,

I've run out of memory to run my newer games, so a friend has offered to download a new hard driver for me, off the Internet. He is only charging me $29 which seems inexpensive for a 20 gigabyte hard driver. He said that he is only charging me the money because that's how much it costs him in excess download charges from his ISP, and the driver itself is free from Maxtor. Is $29 a fair price and what warranty would I get?

Quite a real thing

OMG.....some friend.....i dont even understand half of that.

*sheesh*...
You need a license to drive a car, but they'll let _anyone_ near a computer.

somebody saw that guy coming.

now i am scared that things like palladium WILL be accepted, because if that is an indicator of the general public, M$ could say anything and they will just suck it up like 2 dollar whore.

When i was only one of two people in the boarding house who knew how to work on computers so with collusion we drove our prices sky high

My best rip off, Jimmie barnses sun Jackie - a stupid rich kid with his dads spending habits

I hated him so i charged him $30 to burn a cd not expecting anything. But he handed over 50 games cds to help him buy friends :twisted:

and he was happy to pay the "500

Stupid people do not deserve to have money

1500!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!1

FARK!!!

thats a padawan ripoff. jedi masters like myself get whole computer systems for free.

Amen to that one!
gess some idiots.

LOL Charybdis, at least you only have to deal with Government users - I have to deal with the general public

try attempting to explain to someone the diference between the shift key and the spacebar sometime :P

some people are just so thick I just wish they weren't born.. I physically want to kill them.. they are either stupid or just so arrogant.. pretend they know everything.. and you're just some stupid dickhead.. ffs... I know it's not nice but some of these people I really wonder how they were born... I truly believe hate is the only word to be used sometimes... and yes I really do want to inflict gross amounts of pain on them.

The question is why have we made life so easy and safe. Im sure we could make it a little more dangerous. Would kill off the stupid and only ensure we get a better breed of humans.

I want to grab their heads and just smash them into the ground.. repeatedly.. "Do... YOU.. UNDERSTAND?" Like that.. Muahaha..

Bit right winged here?
Stupid people generaly make life easier, eg do u think they would pay computer techs lots of money to fix a computer if everyone was smart enough to do it.

haha yeah you're right Matt (nice name :)) but sometimes.... it just gets a little too much. I don't mind doing things for people and explaining stuff but some people just don't get it... no matter how much you explain.

I'm one of only a few people who can honestly say they've had to answer these questions:

"Where's the "Any" key?"
"If the little box with buttons is a mouse, is the big box a cat?"
"The internet won't work......oh, it plugs into a phone line? Why wasn't I told"
"Can you please reset my screensaver password?"
"My computer isn't working....Oh....which one is the "power" button?"

*sigh
