-------Geek Squad...

So I have this heavy duty battery-backup surge protector that I got for my computer around 4 years ago for $70-80. The last few times that our power went out (for like 0.5 seconds, mind you), my computer shut down. This should not have happened with the battery in my SP, so today (after the power went out again) I ran a test and found that the battery was in "Critical Condition."

When I went to Best Buy, the (bored-looking) guy at the Geek Squad counter told me that it would be more expensive to have the battery replaced than to buy a new SP, so I shelled out $80 and got a new one. As I was glancing through the manual when I got home, I saw a small section on replacing batteries, which is ridiculously easy to do at home. I got online and soon found a replacement battery for only $20! I ordered one in a hurry, and Best Buy let me return the new SP without any hassle.

Replacing a battery =/= $60 of labor! >:(

I won't have wi-fi for a while starting Friday afternoon due to being out of town, but I'll join the fray if you want to play tonight and/or tomorrow morning. (Even if I still just have Diamond and my old team.)
