Laptops as well?
Chantelle, the free PC tune-ups do include laptops, as well.
Be sure and check out reviews of this service. Just a casual glance around yesterday revealed a lot of “H*** NO, Staples isn’t *touching* my computer!” type posts. And they’ve gotten in trouble at least once for trying to charge someone a ton of money for “needed” services when he brought his computer in for the “free” tune-up.
this offer has been extended till july 4th!
