In all my experience
Which is 6 years of computing, no degree, no classes, nobody educating me but t'interweb, I have learned that with 'puters, you can:
A:Fix it yourself, always a youtube vid explaining everything
B:Get a friend to do it, evryone knows someone that can
C:Pay a company or business to fuck it up worse.

Those are your three choices. I recommend A. If you can't fix it, buy a new one.

Downside? What downside?
All true.

BUT

From bitter personal experience, all the YouTube instructional vids in the world don't help at all when you've only got one 'puter. The one that you would use to look up the YouTube vids, if only it was working.
