A customer brought in a Christmas tree. She had dropped the power adapter and it had a funny connector so she couldn’t find a replacement.
I replaced the connector with USB and gave her an adapter. Better than buying a new one!

Data Recovery – Attempted
A customer brought in a hard drive hoping to recover the data. The data wasn’t worth paying a laboratory so she brought it to me for an attempt.
I was not able to recover the data, but I was able to diagnose the problem so for no charge she got the peace of mind of knowing the data was gone forever. The platter was badly scratched. I called the lab and they told me they couldn’t recover the data even for $100,000! Impossible?
Megatouch – Fixed
A customer brought in a Megatouch (bar solitaire touch screen arcade game, see photo) in which he had replaced the permanent-memory battery and it would not power on.
I verified the battery charge level, configured the CMOS settings properly and returned it to him with brief “step-by-step” showing how to factory reset in the future.
Thanks for bringing it in!
