Computer Issues......

By
Real Estate Agent with Aubrey and Associates Realty

I need to sell a couple of houses to get myself a new computer, mine is about 5 years old.  I still love my old computer, we have commented on a lot of blogs and written a few over the years together.  Up until yesterday it was performing reasonably well, then to add to my office move time constraints, my computer wouldn't connect to the internet. 

Imagine that, AGAIN No Active Rain.  I was able to sneak onto Darcy's old computer to make some comments, (after spending way too much time trying to get mine to work) but my computer has my cache of photographs, and all my sites saved that I go to for quotes.  I tell you I was ready to chuck it and go here:

Instead, I took my computer to Mountain West Computers, here in Cedar City.  They had it fixed and I was able to pick it up before noon today.  It has a new wireless card, and some viruses scrubbed off for less than $100.  I like them, we bought our desktop from them. 

Their web site is: www.mw-computers.com

You should check them out!

Computer issues are cause for cold sweat.  One day this week I couldn't open my Outlook folders but our Florida Association of Realtors' Tech Dept. came to the rescue.  After about 45 minutes, he had me running again and it was FREE.  If your Ass'n offers this service, don't forget to take advantage of them when you have a problem.  I had 45 corrupt files which the tech was able to repair.

Tony and Darcy - I think that computer problems ranks right up there close to #1, in personal frustrations for me.  It is really good that you have someone reliable that can get you up and running for a reasonable price.

Tony and Darcy, That just happened to my husbands lap top but we ended up buying him a new/used computer.  We did keep the old one just in case for our son's girl friend.  I guess now I know what we need to do.

Myrl, let's hope that I still feel that way after we get our laser printer back. It decided that on Friday afternoon with an Open House today, that it no longer needed to print in red.  That is after spending $400 in new HP toner for it!

Marchel, I would just as soon save up until I can get a new computer, I love my laptop, but honestly I am not sure that I still need one.  I am still weighing the pros and cons.  The last computer that we bought for Darcy was a desk top, it is great, it runs fast, and doesn't have the issues that mine does.  I am getting used to just leaving my laptop at the office and not having it at home.  I am finding that I actually don't spend time working when I should be relaxing or spending family time.

Lori, I am just amazed at how necessary a computer is to do our jobs in Real Estate!  They are indespensable!
