How a chat in a bar stopped me buying a new computer
I have suffered of late from what seems to me to be the slowest most annoying computer ever. The man I was talking to was my friend Brian who is a total computer geek. I told Bryan of the issue and asked for his help picking a new computer. Bryan took a while to ponder my issue and while rubbing his bushy white beard said calmly “You don’t need another computer”. I explained once more to Bryan who annoyed I was with my computer in fact I was so annoyed I thought about running it over with my car. In fact I was a little mad with Bryan for not recognizing my pain. However Bryan did go on to explain further and said “It seems to me your issue is with Windows registry errors”. I guess what Bryan said would make sense to most computer guys but to me it was gobbledygook what Bryan said makes sense to computer savvy guys but to me it was like another language. Not wanting to appear stupid I decided to carry on as if I understood him “I see” I replied. At this point Bryan had clearly noticed from the spaced out look in my eyes that I really had no idea what he was talking about. He took out a pen and paper and scribbled upon it the name of a web site fix-this-computer. He then went on to explain that I should visit this site and look under the fix windows registry errors section and from this I should select an option for a free registry scan which would identify and registry errors present on my computer and after this would give me the option to repair them. I followed Bryan’s instructions to the letter and now my computer runs very well indeed.
