Did no one see the part I said about "Normally She would have installed it Herself, but She had to work that day and it was urgent, so, She took the machine in and had it done so it would be ready when She got home"....

My Wife built that Computer Herself from parts; She bought a Case She liked, grabbed a MOBO, and RAM, and everything else, and built it. The only reason She went in there was because of time constraints ONCE lol. She's better at Hardware than I am, Believe me. And Programming for that matter....And She is Certified as a Unix Sys Admin.... I saw the paper from it and wanted one because it's like awesome....

She worked as a tech at this company, and they offered classes too, so people could take tests and get certification more easily, and, they happened to offer a Unix Sys Admin one, and She did it. It was awesome, because they did it all on Sun Machines from what I understand. And my Wife LOVES Sun.

But yea, that's the reason She didn't do it Herself; She was busy and didn't have time that day, and, since it was something urgent, She had to take it somewhere so it would be worked on while She was at work, and be done before She got home. That's all.

And wow Nihil.... Just saw what you said.... Keep it plausible? WTF reason would I lie about a shitty techie for? I just asked my Wife what happened that time.

My Wife said:

She was getting a New Computer, and She handed them Her old HD, because She wanted the drive installed in the new machine, and, so, She hands the guy the HD, and tells him "Don't try to read the drive, it is NOT readable from a Windows machine, so please do not try to read it, just install it, and that's ALL!" Well, She got out of work, went to the shop, and the guy said "Oh, we couldn't read the drive so we formatted it".....

That's what happened. I asked simply because I didn't remember every detail. I don't know why anyone would think I was lying about it like Nihil seems to think, but, either way, it was a VERY ****in incompetent tech obviously, who didn't listen to "Don't try to read this" and he did anyway, and when he couldn't read the drive, he formatted the thing.

She had lost everything as that one was set up with multiple partitions, and that way She could upgrade the OSs on it without having to lose Data, and now, She's telling me this:

She was going to a college at the time, and She did NOT want to buy a Computer from this place, but, Her Mom basically said "Either You buy the Computer from this store, or, I won't pay for it" so, She was forced into going there.

She also told me that She asked specifically NOT to be given a Win Modem, and, they gave Her a ****in Win Modem.

Unless you have been to Quebec, and dealt with these people before, it's probably a little hard to imagine, but some of the dumbest son of a bitches I've ever met in my entire life, are from Quebec.

I don't know why, and it's not like everyone from there is like that obviously, but for some reason, there are some people in Quebec, who are just beyond ****ing tard.

There, now you have details and the whole story. My Wife had built Her own Computer, I was wrong about it being a hardware fix, and instead, it was a brand new Computer, and Her Mom, who's ****ing psychotic as most Mother in laws are, said that the only way she'd pay for the computer was if my Wife went to that store.
