Sorry I actually forgot about it but I was paid for it. It was just a real pain in the butt so that is what I rememberd!. I'm gonna ask that Karl remove my original post if he can. They did complain that the stuff was in the wrong place but I did get paid so now I feel like a horses ass!. By the way Karl I received the book today from Amazon. I'll come back here and post my thoughts. </p> <p>The whole story I posted is true but I forgot the one thing was that I got paid for it. So I really don't want this posted online anymore because it justs makes me look bad. Truely I did forget that I got paid for it!. </p> http://loveyourgeek.com/forums/topic.php?id=7#post-14 Mon, 22 Feb 2010 01:16:07 +0000 Karl 14@http://loveyourgeek.com/forums/ <p>OK, sounds good!

As of me writing this, your post above this one is the newest(until I submit this of course). If I look at the "Freshness" of the posts I won't find anything posted yesterday 2/18/2010. The newest before yours and mine have a "Freshness" of "1 week ago.".</p> <p>EDIT: Nevermind, this geek is losing it!. Found your post Karl!</p> <p>I'm gonna go ahead an order this from Amazon now. Theres another book I want anyway and if I combine it with yours I can get the free super saver shiping. </p> http://loveyourgeek.com/forums/topic.php?id=7#post-12 Fri, 19 Feb 2010 16:12:03 +0000 Karl 12@http://loveyourgeek.com/forums/ <p>Karl here. I absolutely am reading and in the loop on your posts, thanks! For the free book winners, see the post I made yesterday to see if your name is there. If your name appears, please follow the instructions and email your physical address so I can get your book in the mail and on its way to you. Thanks! </p> http://loveyourgeek.com/forums/topic.php?id=7#post-11 Wed, 17 Feb 2010 01:02:38 +0000 kins 11@http://loveyourgeek.com/forums/ <p>Thanks Norbert!. At least I learned something from the experience. I'm not sure Karl reads these forums much. Doesn't seem like there is much activity here, wish I could here or read more stories!. </p> http://loveyourgeek.com/forums/topic.php?id=7#post-10 Tue, 09 Feb 2010 05:21:55 +0000 Norbert 10@http://loveyourgeek.com/forums/ <p>Karl,</p> <p>This one needs to go in Volume II. Tragic abuse of a Geek. That would be like bitching out a fireman for coming in and "unburning" you house and not putting the stuff back "exactly" like it was before they dropped the frozen turkey into the vat of boiling oil!</p> <p>Kins, you are a good Geek. Don't let these losers get you down.</p> <p>Norbert </p> http://loveyourgeek.com/forums/topic.php?id=7#post-9 Mon, 08 Feb 2010 21:19:06 +0000 kins 9@http://loveyourgeek.com/forums/ <p>I didn't know whether I should have started a new thread on this or not. I heard you say you would give away a free book to random posters on this board. Really would like a copy of this book!. I myself have done a lot of free computer work for people. Lately it seems more and more expected of me to fix friends computers for free. Recently I fixed a computer for a friends mom. They restored their Dell with a restore disk and wondered why they couldn't get on the internet. They told me they "had a virus and got rid of it and the virus erased their pictures and documents". I don't think they even knew what they had done with the restore disk or even what it does. Anyway I spent about 6 hours straight looking through over 50,000 pictures and restoring them. Also spent about 4 hours going through old documents they wanted restored. Also cleaned the dust out of the machine, flashed bios, installed all drivers. Really have no idea if they restored the pc themselves or had dell help them or someone elese help them. I don't know how they could have used the restored disk and not realized what it actually does?.....</p> <p>What did I get out of it?. I did get a thank you from the persons daughter, but I also heard that from her that they just complained because the pictures and documents weren't in EXACTLY the same place. I put the pictures in My Pictures in a folder called recoverd pictures and the documents in My Documents in a folder called recoverd documents. </p> <p>At least I learned how tedious recovery can be and maybe I'll think twice about doing any type of recovery for free again. </p> <p>Excuse me for any spelling errors I may have made in my story, just telling it really quick.....</p> <p>Would be great if I could get a copy of that book. </p>
