What a bunch of geeks

What a bunch of geeks! Best Buy has a tech support service called GeekSquad.

I recently brought in my HP printer to have fixed. They have to send it to their shipping service center to get it diagnosed, however he is the catch. If I want to authorize the repair at that point that's great, they will tell me how much it costs. If I don't, I have to pay shipping for it back plus a service fee for the diagnosis estimate. And this is the part that is frustrating -- They can't tell me what that fee will be nor can they call the service center to find out ahead a time!

Would it be $20 + shipping back? $100 + shipping back? more? They have no clue, and they refuse to escalate the issue to find out. So basically I have to blindly give them the printer without having an inkling about what this will cost me.

CLICK.....and PRINT IT!

You got that shiny new digital camera for Christmas and already started to snap hundreds of photos...but they are either still stuck on your memory card or on your hard drive. No one is ever going to see the paparazzi in you if you never print them out!

I've been using both HP and Lexmark photo printers recently and still like the menuing of the HP's Photosmart series of portable photo printers
portable photo printers. They are easy to use and take almost any photo memory card you have - SD, Memorystick, CompactFlash, etc.




Here's your chance to pick one up (or even as a spare!) for only $22! How? The Photosmart 335 Compact GoGo Photo Printeris on sale for $32 right now, and if you use Google Checkout (which is basically using any major credit card) you'll get an extra $10 off free, making it a cool 22 bucks for a HP photo printer.

FYI, It's going for as high as $250 right now elsewhere. How can you go wrong with a 20-buck photo printer?
