cloudwebagency got a reaction from NullDrone in Are used laptops generally a bad idea?The major problem with laptops is heat, and the most common cause of that is dust, most people do not know that there is a filter in laptops and this can get clogged very quickly, this can lead to overheating and usually dries out the thermal paste so that the processor will slow right down and that is a common problem on used laptops, usually all it takes is a quick spray of canned air to keep it clear but sometimes you just have to open up the laptop and give it a good clean and replace the thermal paste. Around here techs charge about £35 for a clean and to replace the paste, which is well worth it as on some laptops getting to the fan and processor can be difficult and time consuming.

cloudwebagency got a reaction from teodora in The Design / Development ProcessI am in full agreement with fuzzy logic on this, the client has asked for your services as the professional so must trust that you will deliver on their brief, yes sometimes you will have clients who will think that they can design better than you but they are in the minority. We make it clear from the start that the end user is the site's visitor and therefore their potential customer and it is that potential customer who needs to be impressed. As far as avoiding people I think it depends on whether you need the work or not, having said that we stay clear if in the first conversation the client says "I'm a perfectionist", those people really are the worse, especially when they have a logo in comic sans or papyrus.
