people who need web designers
Jul. 25th, 2005 06:05 pmDue to the failure (mentioned elsewhere) of one of my laptop LCDs, I have been googling about to see if I can find an alternative to paying ChomPaq €400 for a replacement. This brought to my attention a site that purports to repair all manner of laptop ailments, including component-level system board repair. It's part of a network of sites with similar names - presumably for the googlejuice - but all of them have this odd not-quite-au-fait-with-communicating feel; there are sentence fragments and what look like notes the web site creator made to themselves; there are poorly written lists of things like repairs done, parts available, and so on; the whole thing has a 1995 look-ma-it's-animated feel to it. I am not quite sufficiently enamoured with these folks to trust any cash to them, particularly since the nearest outlet is across the water in the UK, but I have in the meantime found an Irish company who appear to provide a similar - and slightly better worded - service. Meantime, I'm just clicking around the loop of websites here reading and giggling.
