    Just saying the words PC World does it for me tbh...

    You are trained to sell people stuff they will never use. And you have to sell a certain amount or risk getting fired. I know because someone I used to work with worked at PC World. Most of them dont have a clue what their talking about...

    Also had several customers who have taken their computer to the health check thing there and have ****ed it good and proper!

    I reckon you could take a Mac into a PC World service centre, tell them you're having problems installing XP Service Pack 2 on it and they'd take it in to have a look.

    ROFL!!! They'd keep it for ages to rake in the money! Then say its because itts faulty that's why you can't install it. Then they would try and sell you a Mac G5 or something and say this will install SP2 onto it :P

    I think to be honest mate, they'd keep it in for ages trying to work out why SP2 wont install on MAC OS.
