It's Monday morning. You groggily open your email inbox and come across a set of photos from a cousin you haven't spoken to in years. 'Summer Trip!!!', it's called. You double-click, shrug as nothing happens, and watch a minute later as your taskbar slowly fills up with icons you've never seen before. This seems bad. You open IE to find that your homepage has been claimed by a free credit report agency with a passion for popups. Panic sets in as you cross your fingers, reboot your computer, and learn that your startup sound has been set to a clip of Rebecca Black's Friday.This sounds like a call for... GEEK SQUAD!Err, wait. Maybe not. Best Buy's computer repair service can be quite pricey (and it's difficult to tell exactly how much it costs from their website), and a lot of repairs involve shipping your computer to a warehouse as opposed to fixing them on the spot. Which is frustrating when many cities are teeming with hardened technophiles who have been fixing computers for their friends, families, and college dormmates for years.
