Check out their website. they run a non - profit organisation, where for a small yearly donation, you get all the email support you need, free software, competitions and discounts. The site is ideal for beginners. They are also starting PC & internet courses at the shop soon. I think the whole thing's a brill idea.
The guy that runs it is local, give him a look. Make enquiries via the website or at 35, Warner St.

Nice idea and all that but where does it say its non-profit, and from how you have described it above it sounds like the money is being donated to charity, It certainly doesn't look that way to me.
If it was free I'd be interested but a tenner is best spent on a couple of computer mags. Anyway, nice idea, maybe I'll start charging £5 a year for this site, you'll only have to donate it so I know your a serious Accrington person!

Yes been there bought a USB2 card for £20 when i went on broadband

Just another quick point about this "tec-zone" thing. The guy who runs it says hes called Oscar, he also has released some sound software available from the above mentioned site. When you go to download it, it says, and i quote the website -

"Due to lack of resources at this time, we cannot offer technical support. We will let you know here when we can do so."

So, hang on a minute. Lets have a think about this. You want me to spend 10 quid on a site that you say will help me, but you don't have time to support software you have written?

Wake up and smell the coffee!

Stick with micks computer help line, it's free and it's genuine!

Think Mick probably knows the guy that runs it, from the market  ???

[Mick]

Ive seen him but never spoken to him only when i bought the USB2card
seems ok but as for the downloads i dont know.
if anyone wants a big file downloading i will be more than happy to help
only takes seconds to download with broadband

[Mick]

just had a look at the site.
I think the bloke in the pic is a guy called Oscar.
and yes i do know him he has been ok with me.
but if they will not support there software then i would think again :-/

[Caz]

Maybe I've interpretted this wrongly.
Might be worth getting him on the forum to give us some more in depth info into what it is he's doing??? Then people could make informed decisions. After all if it's not genuine, they deserve to know, don't you think?

Sort it out Mick!!!  ;D ;D ;D

[Mick]

i will have a word with him on monday  

[Dave]

Well done that man...

[Mick]

Right had a word with Oscar at tec zone he said "they would be happy to support any software.
and that he will be on this site about 10 pm in the chat room if you have any questions you would like to put to him about tec zone
he said he was comming on anyway as he has been told how good the site was

[Caz]

Wonder who told him that!! ;D

Nice one Mick  

[Mick]

me when i got the usb card he he ;D ;D

[Mick]

Now i know who it is he is ok Oscar will help you anyway he can ;D

[Caz]
