I never said it was free, but nothing close to the figures mentioned earlier. Reality check guys: a desktop PC costs $500 these days, spending $800 to repair a used one does not make sense. If your desktop support guys are half-organized, they have a replacement machine ready to install when the user calls for service, then the machine that as problem (which often is PICNIC: Problem In Chair Not In Computer) goes on the bench where the time it takes to reload a fresh Windows is 5 minutes, time to plug the cables in and pop the Ghost CD in.
