They want me to fix their computers. Is it a computer repair scam?

Is this a scam? It is similar to others but not as cut-n-paste as they are.

Also if it is a scam how does it work?

Should I go with Ubuntu or Windows XP?

October 27, 2009

Here’s the deal.

I love Windows. I’m a big Windows fanboy, but even so, I understand that Windows systems get worse.. and worse.. and worse over time. My XP is getting to that point. I’ve ran every cleaning software, virus software, registry cleaner.. everything. I think this XP is about at it’s end, so I ask for opinions.

I have a Windows Vista laptop, so I still have access to windows. Besides gaming (which I would miss dearly on my desktop), is there really a LARGE change between Ubuntu and Windows? I’ve always been interested in Ubuntu but I’m kind of iffy, I’m not so sure about the installation of programs and such, and as I said before, I’d miss a good portion of the games I play on my desktop.
