Читать книгу Laptops For Dummies - Gookin Dan - Страница 12

The issue of service and support is much more important for a laptop than for a desktop computer. A laptop is a unit. It lacks the easily replaceable components of a desktop. As such, it’s not an item that just anyone can fix.

To ensure that you start out your laptop experience on the best foot possible, I have three recommendations.

First, determine where your laptop will be repaired. Odds are good that it won’t be in the back room at the local Mega Price Mart where you purchased the thing. The laptop will probably take a trip through the mail. If that’s not what you want, ensure that you buy an on-site support option when you buy the laptop. (Yes, some manufacturers offer this service.)

Second, research how the support for your laptop is offered. Most manufacturers offer phone support. Is it good? Terrible? In your native tongue? Maybe a superior support option is available for an extra price. If you need it, buy it.
