Computer Issues? Well, I have certainly been having my share of problems, from IE turning itself off while I am in the MLS doing a search (REALLY not convenient), to Outlook constantly freezing and having to be closed out and started again. When Firefox started freezing and MS Word froze on me, I knew it was time to do something!

Pinellas Realtor Organization offers a help desk that goes above and beyond typical help! I called them up this morning and discussed my problem. Since I will be there tomorrow morning for a four hour class, I will be taking my 2-year old HP laptop to them and they are going to do a complete virus check and see what is going on.

I was informed that they might need it for 8-10 hours and that for $10 I can borrow a laptop to use. That was good news since I cannot be totally computer free for a full business day!!!!

If you are a Realtor in the Greater Tampa Area, remember that Pinellas Realtor Organization does offer computer assistance through their fantastic geek-squad! In this day and age, we all need to know of a dependable place we can take our computers when needed!

Howdy and afternoon Barbara Jo

Barbara Jo my friend, sure sounds like y'all have a mighty fine place to take your computers when they are not feeling very well. $10.00 sure not a bad cost to be able to borrow a laptop from them.

Have a good one

Barbara-Jo, This is a terrific service and only $10 rental fee...that's incredible. It's amazing how a 2 year old computer is considered "old". Time moves so very fast in the techie world!

I won't discuss our help desk. The less said, the better. You are grateful and rightfully so. Not everyone is so helpful. Not being negative though. Or at least I hope you don't think so.

Don - yes, I do know we are lucky!!! Not everybody has this little connection and I do appreciate it. As a matter of fact, they offer web site building and guess who will be in their office looking for help on Monday afternoon....moi!
