Computer Repair

Some Panamanian recommended by my gracious host just return to talk about my notebook. The cost of a new keyboard? $85 A new DVD drive $85. Blow out the unit and replace the parts. Labor $90.

I told him the keyboard costs $30 in the US. The drive costs $35 and it's 20 minutes of work and described exactly how to take the machine apart. No thanks, I'll buy the parts online and fix it myself.
