Default The world is full of experts thanks to PC world

Why is it that every person on the planet that has walked through the doors of "PC World" is a computer expert.?

Not everyone who walks through a hospital door thinks they are a brain surgeon.

As soon as its mentioned that I use a computer for something other than downloading the latest pop song or browsing Britney's latest antics.

It's off to the races.

I hate computers,I don't want to talk about them,they are brain dead lumps of techno plastic and tin and are not capable of holding a conversation with a 2 year old or switching on a lightbulb.

Shame my love of money overrides my hatred of computers.

Alvin

I'm amazed you even went within 200 yards of PC world in the first place. Bloody useless would sum them up quite well

I never said I did.

got to give it to them though amazingly successfull.

the only computer shop in town for most people and when you consider there pricing and profusion of waffling wimps it makes its success even more so.

I have nothing but praise for PC World. When we lost our dog the PC World staff were most concerned and ran round the shop calling her name...I almost regretted calling her sh1thead!

You're wrong there Alvin. The staff walk through the door as well and certainly aren't experts!

mine turns on my lights, can hold a conversation with anyone, plays music throughout the house, lets me watch DVDs anywhere in the house, makes me money, allows me to surf A1, what more do I need from my baby.
