Since when is it the responsibility of computer tech to backup your stuff? That's your own responsibility.Originally Posted by GepperRankins
well can't you do anything for them? isn't it your job?
You want to keep your stuff? Then make backups.

Yes we can- assuming of course, the drive still spins.well can't you do anything for them? isn't it your job?
We don't do forensic data recovery.
Naturally, we charge for data recovery-fees start at $80 and go up depending the quantity in question and what format the end result must take.
The point being, if data has already been backed up a wipe/reload is a minor inconvenience, not the major crisis we face daily.
An astounding number of local businesses run off antiquated POS hand-me-down PCs that never see any maintenence or backup. When they go down, somehow it becomes our problem and responsibility- and do you think they want to pay for the expedited emergency service?
Na-huh.
At least the PC from the local Burger King smells like french fries when turned on....

I wasn't riled, just amazed that people actually trust their PCs to actually work.
A healthy dose of skepticism (which would automatically lead to proper and timely backups) is definitely called for.
It's amusing to see "business" PCs come in and the first thing in internet history is "comeonherfacedotcom"...
"Boy, I really have no idea how that got there!"
"I know exactly how it got there, moron...you typed it in.
Now, shall we discuss internet security and the sad fact that you have none?"

That last is an awfully conservative POV.
BTW-only liberal business owners surf porn at work.
