Ah, Geek Squad, the arch enemy of 4chan /g/

I've read alot about GS over the years, and the basic conclusion of my research is that GS was helpful up till 4 years ago. Then there was a complete overhaul and now they've mostly been replaced by salespeople, who's first job is to sell you crap and second job is to help.

tl;dr Geek Squad is useless. Even if it costs a bit more, find some independent repairman, it'll save a lot of hassle.
