Oh! After AT&T acquires Best Buy, they fire all their DSL techs and replace them with Geek Squad techs. haha.
Well, you know that the Geek Squad techs can fix anything. Even those things that haven't been invented yet. At least that is what they imply in their commercials.

heh
they even fix stuff that's not (yet) broken

so now DSL has gone the way of the big-box-store, commodisized, retailed-out, complete with the inattention to customers true needs. addin those useless geeks and all we get is a recipe for disaster.

Yeah well I called Geek Squad the other day, and they had no trouble fixing my flux capacitor, and my home use cold fusion unit no sweat.

All they did was defrag the influx power conversion chamber, and install a new Heisenberg compensator.

Pretty standard stuff...

Best buy is very expensive for the consumer. Individual pc components alone are 40% higher than newegg or tiger. I can't see their deal with Convad any better for the consumer. And if you have to hire geek squad, you have other issues!

No but chances are you will not be able to get out of there alive without a 3 year extended warranty on replacement matter/energy transporter consumables.

Tiger is about 20% more than newegg. And you should pay a higher price to have the stuff in stock at a store. Will I go there in a pinch yes but most things I get come from newegg zipzoomfly and mwave.
