Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Shrock Innovations presents the midwest number one independent computer repair
company with service centers and Lincoln pah Maha, Papillion, des Moin,
and across the country via the Shrock Desk. This is
Compute this.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
Good morning, folks, Welcome into compute this. I've been trying
to stop saying good morning, because if you're in des
Moin and you're listening to this here at like two
o'clock in the afternoon, and there's nothing like reminding everybody
that it's you know, you know, if you want to
listen to it live, you got to tune in at
seven am. But if you want to just listen to
it casually, I mean two o'clock is fine. Well, good afternoon,

(00:35):
all right, Welcome into compute this, guys. My name is
Thora Schrock. I'm the owner of the Shrock Innovations computer
company where we build computers, We fix computers, We do
anything that touches computers. We help keep businesses with their computers.
We help consumers with their computers, you know, generational help.
It's pretty cool. When you've been around for nearly twenty
seven years. You have people who started with you as

(00:58):
customers and then they referred their chill to you. And
now they have had children and they are coming in
for the kids technology. It's it's just it's awesome, guys,
it is awesome. So thank you for making that possible.
It's because of all your your support that we can
do this. You know, over time, it's still going on. Businesses,

(01:19):
computer businesses. Are you know, reading the writing on the
wall and saying, you know, if you you know, entrepreneurs
don't want to you know, I'm trying to figure out
a way to say this that'll make sense to everybody.
But you know, most entrepreneurs don't start a you know,
the family owned business that you know is passed down
from generation to generation and you know is owned. Invite

(01:41):
try to hire an air conditioning company right now, or
find a plumber. I mean, I was trying to find
an overhead a commercial door repair company in Des Moines
yesterday and every single one of them had an eight
hundred number. I don't want a national conglomerate. I want
the guy that is in West Des Moines who knows
how to make our door button work. I suppose I

(02:04):
could call the eight hundred number of and please enter
your zip code, you know, like, oh my gosh, you
gotta be kidding me. You know that consolidation. It happens
in every industry. It's not just plumbers, it's not just
you know, heating and air companies. It's also computer companies.
I get three or four emails a week. They're all spam,
of course, they're all generated like a lead generation emails

(02:25):
like hey, we want to buy your company. They've never
looked at my company. They don't know anything about my company.
They just want to see if I'm going to respond.
And I don't want to sell my company. But a
lot of other business owners are looking at this saying,
you know, if I do ever want to sell my company, nobody,
and I mean nobody wants to buy a computer repair
company that services consumers. That's how you know we're going
to be here for a long time, guys, because we're

(02:48):
building a company that works really well, but we're not
going to be able to sell it to anybody. It's
like we can't go anywhere. We could just quit, I guess,
and just close up shop and leave. But why would
we do that. You know, all the other computer repair
shops in town are saying, you know, we no longer
want to help consumers. We want business customers. We want

(03:11):
MSP business, we want we want to charge businesses two
or three thousand dollars a month to sit here and
wait for something to fail or to quote unquote monitor
their systems. You know the same thing that Shock business
does for five hundred dollars per computer per year. So
you have a business of four computers, the big boys
are going to charge you a couple grand a month.
Otherwise you're not worth their time. Well, it's just a

(03:34):
difference of philosophy, you know. So at Shock, you know
you're definitely worth the time. Now, funny thing happened this week.
The Holiday special is in full swing at all four
service centers. The Holiday Special laptop and desktop are both
on display. The laptops are still in shortage, so if
you're thinking about a Holiday special laptop, please do not
wait until December. I think I have eighteen left in

(03:55):
the Papillion Service Center right now that are that are
being built, and after that we're going to try to
get more, but we just don't know if we can.
For the first time in you know, I think we
started doing this in two thousand and one, so that'd
be twenty four years. The first time in twenty four years,
we may not have one hundred and fifty laptops to
do for the holiday special, and we sell out every
year anyway, so we're definitely going to sell out a

(04:17):
laptops this year, one hundred percent for sure. So if
it's something you're thinking about doing, please do not wait.
The other thing is I want to preface this by saying,
when you come in too buy a holiday special, you're
buying a seventeen ninety nine computer. It's a complete package.
If you get the desktop, it comes to the laptop,
or with the screen and the keyboard and the mouse.
If you buy the laptop, it is an amazing AI

(04:37):
powered piece of equipment that is just phenomenal. By the
extended warranty, please, the reason I'm telling you this guys,
we give you a one year of parts in labor
warranty on the computer when you buy it. So it's
not like you know you're doing me a favor by
buying the warranty. Here, our warranties work differently than when
you talk about an auto warranty or a warranty on

(04:58):
your lawnmower or something like that. At Shock, if you
don't use your warranty. If you give us money for
a warranty that you do not end up needing, we
literally will refund that money back to your Shock account
as a store credit, and you can use it toward
anything else you want. A lot of customers choose to
buy another year of warranty with that refund, therefore essentially

(05:19):
keeping their computer under perpetual warranty. In a holiday special,
there is not a single component we can replace in
that computer for less than three hundred dollars. That's just
the cost of the component, not the labor. So you really, really, really,
whether you have a holiday special from two or three
years ago or you're buying a new one in the
service center, if you are out of warranty, you are

(05:41):
skating on thin ice without a net. To mix my metaphors,
it's rough. So when we ask you about the warranty,
please just take a beat and listen to that. Because
there's two types of people in the world. There's people
who buy warranties and there's people who don't. And there's
nothing you can say to the guy who doesn't buy
a warranty to make him buy a warranty other than
if you don't use it. I'll give you your money
back and if you need it, you're really glad you

(06:03):
have it. Then all of a sudden people say, well, hmm,
that's a good deal. Why would you do that? Shock
my accountant, why would you do that? Shock? I mean
thor why would you do that? The reason we do
it is because we want to keep you as a
customer forever. And it sounds it sounds really a kind
of kind of creepy, doesn't it, Like you know, you

(06:25):
can never leave, We're going to keep you forever. No,
it's not like that. It's we want to be your
computer people for good. We want to be the computer
people that you turn to, that you send your kids to,
that you send your grandchildren to. That's how we've built
this business, that's how we were at where we're at.
We want to keep doing that. And the way that
we keep doing that is, you know, if you can

(06:46):
come even if we make a mistake, even if we
screw up royally, which we're human, so we do sometimes,
but we do always try to make it right, even
if we screw up royally. If it's free to get
your computer fixed with us, you're probably gonna come back
and give us another at the Apple. You know what
I mean. So we'll have another opportunity to say, hey,
look that was an anomaly. This is how it's supposed
to be. Look at this, isn't this great? For zero

(07:08):
two five five, eight eleven ten is the number to
join us on the program if you're outside of the
metro area eight eight eight two five zero two zero
nine to one. Last week on the show, we explained
that we officially launched the twenty twenty five holiday special sale,
and we went through all the the specs and the
cool stuff in there. We'll touch on that again today
a little bit, but we won't spend a whole show
on it. We warned you about a new type of

(07:32):
fake alert notification. This is different. We saw it again
in the Lincoln Service Center yesterday. It's becoming a daily
phone call. All of our techs are getting the call. Essentially,
these notifications are popping up in the lower right hand
corner of your screen telling you you're infected, telling you
need to download McAfee, or whatever the case might be.
They're fake notifications. You just have to disable notifications to

(07:53):
stop them from popping up. Yes, we can go through
and we can hunt down what website they're coming from
and individually clip them. But realistic, do you want notifications
from any website? I mean, maybe if there's a a
big sale going on at Whole Foods, maybe you want
a notification. I guess maybe get that on your phone.
You don't need to clutter up your computer screen where
they just turn those notifications off. It still lets the

(08:14):
system notifications through that are important to your computer, but
just not all the website spam that you accidentally clicked
except to at some point. So, yeah, this is a
huge deal. We're seeing this all over the place. Make
sure if you get these pop ups in the lower
right hand corner that you know they're fake. We'll make sure.
If you want us to double check and take a look,
we're happy to do that for you. Also, we told

(08:36):
you about the quiet space race that's going on between
the US and China right now and how SpaceX and
Elon are involved in that and just some pretty crazy
stuff there. A lot of people don't know that's going on,
so it was kind of a fun story. Now around
the shops this week guys. Oh, by the way, if
you did miss that show and you want to pick
it up, if you want to hear about the space
race or the notification things or whatever. You can check
out the radio show on our website at Shrock Innovations

(08:59):
dot com. Innovations dot com, where you can download the
radio show, listen to the podcast. It's available on YouTube,
it's available on Rumble. You can listen to it all
over the place, So check that out. So around the
shops this week, we uh, of course, we have the
holiday special going on. That's kind of been the big thing.
We have a lot of new staff, a lot of
people who have never seen a holiday special from from

(09:20):
our side of the table before, and so there's been
a lot of training, a lot of education, a lot
of time going into making sure that everybody understands and
knows what the holiday special is, why it's important, and
so a lot of this is top of mind for
me right now. So we're gonna spend some time on
the program today. You know, whether you're buying a holiday special,
which you know, they're amazing computers, but they're not everybody's

(09:42):
cup of tea, So maybe you're gonna buy some other
computer somewhere else. On the show today, we're going to
tell you how do you pick the laptop or the
desktop that's right for you, even if you're not buying
it from Shrock. How do you pick the one that's
right for you. This is important to know because if
you're buying someone a gift for the holiday something, or
you're buying yourself a computer, or you're asking for a computer,

(10:03):
or maybe you're getting one for your family, you want
to pick the right one. You want to pick the
one that's gonna do what you wanted to do. So
we're gonna make sure that you understand exactly you know
how to do that. So we'll help you out with
that one a little bit on the program today. Also,
my wife, the lovely Kimberly, was doing what she does,
making things beautiful. And she's in the Omaha Service Center.

(10:24):
She's decorating the tree. Yes, the Christmas tree. Yes, I
know it's not Thanksgiving. I went to Williams Sonoma on Friday.
You know what I heard Christmas music. Went to Pottery
Barn on Friday. I didn't actually want to go to
all these places. My wife wanted to go to these
places and I went with her. And on Friday I
went to Pottery Barn. You know what I heard? Christmas music.

(10:48):
I went to high v you know what I heard,
No Christmas music. It was weird, But gotcha on that one,
didn't I the we're not playing Christmas music at Chruck. Okay,
we're not full in like that. But here's the thing.
When you have four service centers and each one of
them has a Christmas tree, by the time you're done
doing four commercial Christmas trees, you don't even want to

(11:12):
touch your own Christmas tree at home, Like you're so
done with trees. Your hands look like a cat attacked you.
Like you just you're done. So you got to start
a little earlier so you have some gas in the
tank to make your family's holiday season good. So that's
what the Love of the Kimberly is doing. She's getting
in there, she's getting the trees up, getting them decorated.
You know, we are launching the holiday special after all.
At some I don't know what the magic line is

(11:33):
where it's okay for a commercial business to put up
Christmas trees. But no, it happens every year. She puts
the tree up, and she puts the first decoration on
the tree. Bing bong, the door opens and in walks
Karen mcgrincherson. This person looks at the lovely Kimberly and says,
it's not chrismass, And this is the lovely Kimberly is.

(11:58):
You know, she's not an HR person. She's not she's
not gonna be able to do the HR thing. But
so she says to me, she didn't say anything to
the custody, goes, what did I say to the customer?
And I was like, oh no, and she said, I
didn't say anything. You know what I said in my
head though, And I was like, what's that? She said,
it's not Halloween either, but why are you still wearing
that face? And I was like, oh snap, Like she

(12:21):
she touched a nerve on you. She's like, yes, she did.
She was super rude. Why do people feel the need
to be rude about people putting up Christmas decorations? Why
does everybody think they need to have an opinion about that? Like,
I'm gonna come in, I wanta tell that. You know what,
You're just yelling at somebody who's getting paid to put
up Christmas decorations. You know, in the love of Kimberly's case,
she's not even getting paid to do it. She just

(12:42):
does it. So, I mean it's it was, it was.
It happens every year, every single year. So if you
happen to see the lovely Kimberly and she's putting up
a Christmas tree somewhere, make sure you tell her she's
doing a good job, because you'll be undoing something that
somebody else, somebody else did. But yeah, Karen mcgrincherson, I
think her name actually was Karen four zero two five
five eight eleven ten eight eight eight two five zero

(13:03):
two zero nine to one quick update. Lincoln Service Center
reconstruction is going very very rapidly. We have paint back
on the walls, which is great. We're getting base vinyl
trim this week and then we'll be able to put
our displays back against the wall and hang the cabinets
and do all those things and then we'll be able
to be back to normal. So we're very very very

(13:24):
close to back to normal. So please thank you for
your patients with us in Lincoln. We are still running
on modified hours and Lincoln to give the construction guys
the time that they need to do what they need
to do. We're open ten am to six pm Monday
through Saturday in the Lincoln Service Center only. So the
Lincoln Service Center has some modified hours. If you're listening

(13:44):
in Lincoln, just be aware of that if you're going
to be shopping or coming in or calling in. Things
like that. Closed on Sundays in Lincoln right now, just
like Chick fil A, all right. So the Holiday special
is in full effect right now. It's a special sale
that we do every year where we sell one hundred
and fifty desktops and one hundred and fifty laptops. But

(14:04):
we sell them at cost. That's why there's a quantity limit.
You can't you can't just sell as many as you
want and not make any money on them. Now. Of
course there's there's upgrades and add ons and things like that,
and we make a little bit on those, so I
mean we're not missing any meals, as my dad used
to say. But the computer itself, I mean, if you
were to take this computer with a riz In nine

(14:25):
ninety nine hundred X processor and you know, the one
terabyte high speed ENVME hard drive, sixty four gigs of
DDR five memory, you know, if you go on you know,
go on Dell, go on, HP spec out a computer
with those specs, you're going to end up around three
thousand dollars for that computer. So seventeen ninety nine it's

(14:47):
our cost, guys, that's what it costs us to build
these computers. And each build. These these builds are complex builds.
These are not standard computer builds. A standard computer build,
like if it's an Endeavor or Boundless. We can crack
one of those out in fifteen minutes, including programming, including
all the drive imaging, everything like that. Fifteen minutes boom.
You know, you can hear that little doo do do

(15:09):
going on in the background, and they're just popping out
every fifteen minutes. Cookies coming out of the oven. Holiday
Specials one hour per build. The cable routing is intense.
Many more cables, much more power have to have it
done right. The cooler that goes into the Holiday Special
desktop is radically different than the cooler that we use

(15:30):
in a standard computer. This thing is better described as
a cooling tower. It has its own digital readout on
the surface of it to tell you what the temperature
of your processor is while the computer's running. That's how
we know it's doing a great job, even under load.
We didn't have to go check the temperatures. We could
just look in the window on the side and see
the temperature on the side. It's like looking at the

(15:51):
oven temperature in They're like, oh, look at that, it's preheated.
You can you can see what the load is, how
hard is it working. There's a percentage indicator. Remember when
you had to look at little blinky red light to
see if your computer was working hard. Well, now you
can look in the window at the processor and say, wow,
that processor is working at twenty seven percent. And this
processor is a beast, so something pushing it to twenty
seven percent. It's a photoshop running Like what's going on here?

(16:14):
Like it's a fast processor. The Holiday Special laptop completely
AI ready laptop. It's got the super high resolution three
K display, the enlarged touch pad with gesture control, just
all the little bonuses, all the little extras. The RGB
backlit keyboard, which means you can assign colors to the keyboard.

(16:35):
Do you want it red, do you want it white,
do you want it rainbow? You can do whatever you want,
whatever you would, you want it off, you can do
whatever you want with it. So the Holiday specials this
year are just absolutely phenomenal. Machines. Both of them are
fully AI capable, fully AI ready. There's a gaming package
add on that you can get for the holiday special
desktop that literally transforms it into a monster gaming machine

(16:58):
that is literally better than and what any of my
employees have at home. Not joke, not joking, not even
a little bit. This is a monster gaming package. We've
had employees saying, you know, have you ever considered like
sponsoring an esports team somewhere? Like I don't really know.
I mean, we don't really have a gaming line. And
then the guys are like, why don't we Like, well,
I guess we could do that. We've never really had

(17:18):
a gaming line before, we never really had a call
for it. And they're like, well, maybe people don't ask
for it because we don't have it. Like okay, chicken
in the egg, I get you, all right. So we're
gonna see how many gaming packages people buy, because that's
what this computer is. If you throw the the RTX
fifty seventy GPU in there, that graphics card, all of
a sudden baboom, you can play any game. You can

(17:39):
be dominant in any game you want to play. Four zero, two, five, five, eight,
eleven ten. We're gonna take our first break of the program. Guys,
when we come back, how are you supposed to pick
the right computer for your family? How do people pick computers? Now?
What are they doing right? What are they doing wrong?
We're gonna give you some pointer, So whether you're buying
a computer from Shock or you're buying a computer somewhere

(18:00):
where else this holiday season, you can make the right
decision for your family. Coming up next on compute.

Speaker 3 (18:05):
This, there are enough unused computers in storage to give
every man, woman, and child in the US an old, outdated,
and useless computer system. Obsolete tablets and smartphones are nearly
as bad. Most people know not to throw them into
the landfill where they leak and contaminate, but it's hard
to find a place to safely recycle electronics. That's why

(18:25):
Shrock Innovations offers free recycling for computers, laptops, phones, tablets, cords,
and accessories. In fact, only monitors and printers have a
small recycling fee. Everything else is free. More importantly, Shock
will securely delete any data from your devices and hard
drives before they are sent to a certified recycling partner,
who will then repeat the wiping process just to be saved.

(18:48):
When you recycle your old technology at Shrock, you know
your identity and privacy are protected and your equipment is
being actually recycled by a certified recycling partner. Shock is
proud to recycle more than we produce annually, making a
positive difference to our economy and ecology. Do your part
by dropping your old gear at any Shock service center

(19:09):
and be part of the area's largest and most popular
technology recycling program with Shrock Innovations.

Speaker 4 (19:16):
Drive Advisor is a free program from Shock Innovations that
monitors your hard drives health and tells you if it's
going bad. Download it for free at driveadvisor dot com.

Speaker 3 (19:27):
You would probably rather drink the water at Camp La
June than get another call about the desperate need to
renew your cars expiring warranty.

Speaker 5 (19:34):
Who actually responds to those calls.

Speaker 3 (19:36):
Everyone wants to play the warranty game where you pay
money now just in case you need service later that
everyone hopes you.

Speaker 5 (19:43):
Won't net or use. It's such a waste. It's no
different with computers.

Speaker 3 (19:47):
Major manufacturers warranties have more subscript crosses than a Sunday
morning church service.

Speaker 5 (19:53):
Batteries are exempt.

Speaker 3 (19:54):
Hard drives must be completely dead and forget about anything
that they can remotely claim as physical de That's why
Shrock warranties are different. When you purchase a modular PC
or a solid state laptop and extend.

Speaker 5 (20:06):
Your warranty, we offer a no risk money back guarantee.

Speaker 3 (20:10):
If you need the warranty, you will be thrilled to
have it if you don't use it, and we refund
your money automatically every time.

Speaker 5 (20:17):
That's right.

Speaker 3 (20:17):
We are so confident in the quality of our products
that our extended warranties are refundable. Many Shrock customers use
their refunds to purchase another warranty or pocket.

Speaker 5 (20:27):
The savings and move on.

Speaker 3 (20:28):
We all know you'll need it to cover that expiring
car warranty anyway. Shock's refundable extended warranties just another way
the Shrock Innovations Computer Company makes your computer work for you.

Speaker 2 (20:44):
All righty folks, welcome back into Compute.

Speaker 3 (20:46):
This.

Speaker 2 (20:46):
My name's Thor Schrock. I'm the owner of the Shrock
Innovations Computer Company. For zero two, five, five, eight eleven
ten is the number to join us on the show today,
and that's what Greg has done. Greg, welcome to the program.
How can I help you this morning on compute this.

Speaker 6 (21:00):
Hey Blugger show. And I took my computer and I've
had it in many times. I took it in last
Wednesday to get the annual maintenance check up and they
said it'd be a couple of days, and I've heard nothing.
Are you guys way behind?

Speaker 2 (21:15):
Yeah? I see you brought it in Wednesday at three pm,
So yeah, I mean usually we want to be around
what we quote. We want to quote is twenty four
to forty eight hours what we're quoting right now. And
you're in Papillion, right Greg, That's what you're in the
Papillion Service center. Is that correct?

Speaker 7 (21:30):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (21:30):
Okay, yeah, yep. The Papllion Service centers has a slightly
faster turnaround than Omaha right now, but it is rolling
around seventy two hours. So I can send a message
into the staff to let them know that, hey, you'd
like a status check to see kind of what's going
on here. But I also see looking at your work
order that you wanted to know if if your computer
would be Windows eleven compatible, potentially your your Dell Optoplex laptop.

(21:57):
I'm going to say hard no on this one. The
reason I can tell you that without even looking at
the computer and the service center is I can pull
up your drive advisor data and drive advisor tells me
what kind of processor you have. You have an Intel
Core two duo processor. It is too old, it's not
going to run it. Also, the last time that that
drive advisor saw your hard drive, which was just a
day or two ago, here, the health of your hard

(22:19):
drive is at fifty eight percent. So you have a
failing You have a failing hard drive which is probably
slowing things down a little bit on the diagnostic side.
And your computer is not Windows eleven compatible. So I
would say, if you were thinking about a new system,
you're firmly in new system territory here, and that's that's
going to be the result that comes back. So what

(22:40):
I think I might do is I might ping the
guys and let him know, Hey, I know he brought
it in for a maintenance checkup, but if you know
it's not Windows eleven compatible, and you know it has
a failing hard drive, so the customer is going to
have to put two three hundred bucks into this computer
to make it work right anyway, and it's not Windows
eleven compatible, So why would you do that, don't we
just skip the maintenance check up and go cut straight

(23:02):
to the chase. So I'll send them that message to
let them know to get back to you. But yeah,
just looking at the specs on your system here in
our online system, I can tell that your computer is
not going to be Windows eleven compatible.

Speaker 6 (23:14):
Okay, Well I had mentioned that I might be interested
in getting a different I wasn't sure, but I don't
go with a desktop or a laptop. Sure, but can
can you can you put everything that's on my computer
on the new computer?

Speaker 2 (23:27):
Yeah? So we have two different types of data transfer.
We can do a basic data transfer, which is just
you know, we move your files, we move your settings,
we move your favorites. Any programs have to be reinstalled
after that up after that transfer. So if you have
word documents, we'll move your word documents, but if you
want to open them, you got to install Word or
you know, use Libre Office that we install for you. Now,

(23:49):
the Advance I don't do any of that kind of Okay.
The Advanced data transfer does all the same stuff, but
we also move programs. This is handy if you've got
any old software that you're going to have trouble reinstalling.
You don't have license keys for anymore and stuff like that.
Having us move the software is a much better solution
in that case.

Speaker 6 (24:07):
Okay, well, then tell them to call me and let's
get that done next tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (24:13):
Well it sounds good. We're there today noon to five,
so I'll get this message out. Oh yeah, okay, yeah,
I'll get this message over to Corey and then hopefully,
like I said, I don't want to I hate promising
that somebody is going to do something when I am
not the person doing it. But I will promise you
that I will send Corey this message today and ask
him to get back to you today.

Speaker 6 (24:31):
Okay, I appreciate that.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
All right, Hey, thank you Greg. I appreciate your call
on the program today for zero two, five, five, eight
eleven ten. And that's what I'm talking about. Guys. We
have some of the smartest texts. They can do some
crazy stuff. I had a chase in Lincoln literally. Okay,
this customer brought in a computer and this is a
little inside baseball, and I know we have a break,
so I'll go fast. He brings in a computer that's
running Windows seven Ultimate, Windows seven Ultimate, and it's one

(24:58):
of those joint you know, Gateway used to make those
like four foot tall towers that were you know, you
could put a small child inside there. You know. It
was one of those towers. And it's got and he's
booting off of a raid array, a raid array. It's
slow as snot. This computer is crawling. So we had
to clone the raid array to a solid state drive,

(25:19):
upgrade the solid state drive from Windows seven to Windows ten,
which is also an obsolete operating system. Then we had
to build a new core for the new computer with
all the new parts on it. And then we had
to take that that solid state drive and clone it
onto an envme solid state hard drive and stick it
in the motherboard. And then Chase gets in there and
manually makes all the boot partitions that Windows eleven is

(25:42):
going to require to operate. It's not a tool. It's
not a uh oh here, let me go click three
buttons and it'll do it for me. No. No, he's
like an artisan in there making partitions like he's the
like the'se the Keebler partition elf, making them in a
hollow tree and just gets them all done. In that case,
is kind of like a hollow tree and so then
he gets it all done and he's like, oh, hey boss,

(26:04):
it's bootin, and I'm like, God, bless you. I was
really not looking forward to doing that because I am
not an artisan when it comes to that stuff. I
have to use the little tools and things like that,
because you just built it, like, that's amazing. We have
some of the smartest people working for us, guys, but
sometimes it's just that experiential level of saying, you know, hey,
why are we doing maintenance on a system that we're

(26:25):
obviously going to recycle. Obviously this is not let him
save his maintenance certificate and you know we don't. You know,
we tell you they expire in six months, guys, but
we honor them. I don't take money. I don't take
money from people and then not give them what they
paid for because oh, too late, should have moved quicker.

Speaker 7 (26:43):
You.

Speaker 2 (26:43):
I hope you've learned a lesson in this. Yeah, I've
learned a lesson is don't buy stuff from thor. We
don't want you to learn that lesson, so we'll honor it.
We'll honor it anyway. So yeah, let's just push it
on another six months and honor it for you later.
On the new computer. How about that four zero, two, five, five,
eight eleven tens a number to join us on the program.
I'm going to make a break here, guys. When we
come back, Steve, thanks for hanging on the line. We'll
get your WiFi seven call coming up next. On compute this.

Speaker 3 (27:05):
Computer, problems usually don't just suddenly happen. Most failures usually
start out as small issues with few or no symptoms.
Over time, they grow into error messages, blue screens, and
other problems that can be costly to fix. Shrock innovations
by annual preventative maintenance checkup catches those small problems now
before they can metastasize and become tomorrow's costly repairs. During

(27:28):
the maintenance check up, our experienced technicians perform up to
eight hours of tests, checks, automated repairs and optimizations that
keep your computer at peak efficiency while identifying potential issues
while you still have options about how to handle them.
When your computer gets its first check up, it can
see up to a twenty five percent performance improvement and
leaves our service center cleaned, sanitized, and running better than

(27:51):
the day you bought it. Just About every complex device
requires maintenance. Your computer is no different, especially considering the
valuable information that pass through it every day.

Speaker 5 (28:01):
If you have not had your.

Speaker 3 (28:02):
Computer maintenance in the past six months, you are overdue.
Stop in or call any of our service centers to
arrange a free pickup to ensure your computer continues to
work for you.

Speaker 4 (28:13):
Throck Innovations Data Recovery Labs saves the data the other
guys can't.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
The next time your.

Speaker 4 (28:18):
Hard drive, camera card, or flash drive fails, let Shrock
get your data back.

Speaker 3 (28:23):
Have you noticed that almost every piece of technology seems
to do its best.

Speaker 5 (28:27):
To be disposable?

Speaker 3 (28:29):
Every day people talk their phones, tablets, and other electronic
devices because.

Speaker 5 (28:33):
They can't be repaired.

Speaker 3 (28:35):
Manufacturers have engineered their products to fail on a schedule
so they can extract more money out of your family
budget automatically every year or so.

Speaker 5 (28:44):
But what if it didn't have to be that way.

Speaker 3 (28:45):
What if you could get the performance of today's fastest
computers with the expansion and upgrade options you used to enjoy.
You just described Shrock's modular desktop computers. Having the right
tool for the job is important, and Shock's modular desktops
packed the performance and flexibility to handle your.

Speaker 5 (29:03):
Computing needs from just checking the email.

Speaker 3 (29:06):
To running a complex business, Modular desktops or engineered to
be easily repaired with widely available industry standard parts. Every
component is selected intentionally to give you years of upgrade
and repair options. It is not uncommon for a short
customer to be using the same computer for a decade
after they bought it. Modular PCs are the most popular

(29:26):
custom computers in the Midwest or reason. When you are
ready for your next computer, stop in to check out
the modular lifestyle or shop online at Truckinnovations dot com.

Speaker 2 (29:43):
Sorry, we're making fun of our own commercials here did that?
Commercials say it's going to extract money from people and
it's like a money vacuum. And I was telling a
story my wife got you know, she took out her
card to pay for something at a tap to pay
terminal the other day and she got her card out
of her wallet and it was like a full foot
from the terminal and the terminal was like beep and
like it just like did it. She's like, oh damn,

(30:05):
she sticks her back in the wallet. Don't get your
wallet too close to that thing. Like then we went
down to Scrooge McDuck and it was like, remember, like
Scrooge McDuck would dive headfirst into a vatful of money,
Like why would anybody dive headfirst into a bucket of coins?
Like that really loves his money. I guess, I guess
you know. These are the cartoons that we grew up on. There,

(30:26):
that you grew up on, and I saw his reruns,
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (30:30):
Well, then family Guy peroted it and Peter actually dove
into the metal and Doe head first and broke his nose.

Speaker 2 (30:38):
So see there. Yeah, Now, now there's some people that
understand you don't want to do that. So at Schrock
we're not just here to extract money from you. You know,
we don't even have a tap to pay terminal right now,
So you just take out your card willy nilly at
Shrock and nothing's gonna beep it. It's gonna be just fine.
Four zero two, five, five, eight eleven ten. Steve, welcome
to the program. Saved me from myself? Here? How can

(30:59):
I help you on can at this today?

Speaker 7 (31:01):
Hey? Thanks for taking my callthor what I keep getting
emails from next years that I should upgrade my Wi
Fi routerer from Wi Fi six to Wi Fi seven.
All my phones and tablets and TVs and printer and
my laptops, they're all well over a year old. Yes,
is there any reason to go to Wi Fi seven now?

Speaker 2 (31:24):
Well, this is the challenge. I installed Wi Fi seven
in my home and all of our phones are within
a year old, so they all have Wi Fi seven capability,
so they all benefited from it. The coverage was fantastic,
the speed is amazing, and we just upgraded to Alo
two gig service. And if you don't have a router
that can push that, there's no point in getting it.

(31:45):
You know, even one gig service, you need a newer
router to push that. So, but the difference between Wi
Fi six and Wi Fi seven, if you don't have
Wi Fi seven receivers, you're not going to notice any
difference at all. So, and I'm going to tell you
the Wi Fi seven there's a reason that we still
sell Wi Fi six E routers at Shrock the Wi
Fi seven gear. I spent seven hundred dollars on a router. Guys,

(32:10):
that that's what Wi Fi seven is gonna cost you.
Wi Fi six one hundred and fifty bucks much more reasonable,
one fifty ninety nine. So you can, you can do
you can, especially if you have an older gear. There's
no reason to spend the extra money for Wi Fi seven, unless,
of course, you have newer gear that can take advantage
of it, or you have some issues with range, or

(32:32):
you want a repeater like I. The unit that I
bought has like a three three transmitter mesh network is
one on each floor, essentially one of the basement, one
on the main floor, one upstairs. And we still have
a couple dead spots in the house even with that,
so you know, it's much better than the router we
had before, but you know, still seven hundred dollars, and
that was the mid range one. I could have spent
nine hundred. I mean, you can spend a lot of

(32:55):
money on a Wi Fi seven rouders. So the answer
to your question, Steve is if you don't have any
devices that support WiFi seven, there is no need to
spend the money on it. If you do, then you
can go to town.

Speaker 7 (33:04):
Some more quick questions your holiday specials. So they WiFi.

Speaker 2 (33:08):
Seven, they are Wi Fi six E.

Speaker 7 (33:11):
The six Okay, Hey, thanks so.

Speaker 2 (33:13):
Much, thank you have a great afternoon. For zero, two, five, five, eight, eleven,
ten is the number to join us on the program today.
So we're talking a lot about computers here lately because
the holiday season is coming up. Black Friday is coming
up and h oh yes, I almost forgot do this
just in a special announcement from Evan in the Des
Moines Service Center lead technician shraw Co Innovations. Evan reports, Please,

(33:38):
for the love of all things holy, tell the customers
and listeners on Sunday morning thor not to buy acers
from Walmart. This has been an announcement from the Shrawk
Innovations computer Company. Yes, all acers sold at Walmart are
pretty much garbage. Doesn't matter how cheap they are, they
will last like a year. I took a call yesterday
from a customer who bought an ACER an eight hundred

(33:59):
dollars ACE. Now he got his from costc so, you know,
not Walmart. Guess what, Twelve months later he's calling me saying,
should I fix it? Or should I buy a new laptop?
Because that's what you now. The only ACER that's worth
owning is the ACER Predator series, which is like the
gaming laptop. But you're gonna drop two grand on that,
and if you were going to do that, you should

(34:19):
just buy a holiday special. I mean it's less, it's
cheaper because we're selling it at cost. So the thing
is when you're going to buy a computer. When people
buy a computer, there's it's unlike buying any other thing.
So if you are buying an air conditioner for your
home and you have a two thousand square foot house,
let's say you're not going to buy an air conditioner

(34:41):
rated to cool a four thousand square foot house. You
don't need to buy that much cooling capacity. Now, you
also don't want to buy the one that's gonna cool
like you know, thousand square feet, because it's not going
to keep up, it's gonna burn out. You want to
buy the one that's right, that fits right. So in
a lot of ways, everything we buy, we look at

(35:02):
it we say what do I need? I don't want
to buy more than I need because there's the perception
that when you buy more than you need, you pay
more for it. So you want to pay enough to
get what you need. But no more people buy their
computers the same way, and it's completely wrong. So when
you're buying a computer, you're saying what am I using
the computer for? Today? You say how many square feet

(35:25):
is my house today, and you're buying the computer that
matches that. So you're buying the air conditioner that matches
your square foot you're buying the computer that matches your
needs today. Now, in this analogy, let's just say over
the course of five years, you're going to double the
size of your house to four thousand score feet. Wouldn't
it have been a wiser investment initially to buy the

(35:48):
four thousand score foot air conditioner, so you only have
to buy one air conditioner, not two over a five
year period. Why is it that people don't do that
with computers? Needs not only have changed in the past.
I can look back in time. Remember when Windows XP
was out and one gigabyte of memory was phenomenal one gigabyte. Now,

(36:13):
if you don't have eight, you can't run Windows eleven.
If you don't have thirty two, you can't run most
multiple programs at the same time, especially more intense programs.
If you want to run something like a photoshop, you
got to have sixty four. Now we can go up
to two hundred and fifty gigs of RAM in a computer.
It took four megabytes of memory to put a man

(36:34):
on the moon, but Windows eight needs eight thousand of
them to boot. Your needs are going to change over time,
not because you were bougie, not because you are you know,
being wasteful or being a spend thrift, but because the
world is marching forward. And for example, AI, yesterday, my

(36:57):
wife texts me and says, hey, I need your help
with computer up here. I didn't see the text for
sixteen minutes, so then I said, oh, on the way,
came upstairs to help her with her computer. Turns out,
when she boots it up, she goes every time I
turned my computer on, my computer that she built herself,
doesn't find my Wi Fi card, and then I have
to like click repair and it fixes it and then
it works. But it happens every time I boot. So

(37:19):
while I was waiting for you to finally see my text,
mister computer repair man, you'd be so proud of me,
I asked chat GPT what was going on, and it
stepped me through going into the device manager, stepped me
through looking for the yellow exclamation marks, found them, identified
that we were competing for resources between two different devices.
And guess what the fact that I had my Bluetooth

(37:41):
speaker charging on the USB port was what was causing
the problem. So I unplugged that and now I reboot
and everything is fine. Chat Gpt solved her problem, her
computer repair problem in less than sixteen minutes. So you're
not the only people worried about job security, guys. Let
me tell you what you know. But that's just an

(38:02):
example of AI. You know, again the lovely Kimberly, She
asks chat GPT. Okay, I'm creating a room and it's
a homeschool room, and I have this is the pieces
of furniture. She gives chat GPT the links for the furniture.
She says, the carpet is this color. This is what
I have in the room, and this is the feel

(38:22):
that I'm going for in the room. What paint color
should I choose? And it picked a paint color that
she had never heard of. It was like a foggy
moss green or something like that. Yeah, and she she
would have never She goes, you want me to what
is this like a man's duck hunting office? You want
me to paint the walls green? Like are you joking?
But you know, chat GPT said, So she says, Okay,

(38:44):
let's try it. She paints the walls this moss fog green,
and all of a sudden, everything in the room just
comes together like it just it looks you walk into
the space and you're just like, this is perfect. You
want to know why we changed the paint and Omaha
to chip blue, and why Lincoln is getting its paint
job in chip blue while all the service centers are

(39:06):
going to get accent wall with a black accent wall
with chip blue because chat GPT said that's the right
colors for what you're doing, for the look and the
feel you're going for in the service center. So we
tried it out in Omaha and Son of a Biscuit
it it looks amazing. Now everyone comes in and says,
there's really nurse for your to print the shop Creighton blue.

(39:28):
So yes, it does look like we're a big Blue
Jay fan in there. We could put a Blue Jay
emblem on the wall. We be fine. But I'm just saying,
your needs are going to change over time. You're gonna
find new tools and new uses for things. I had
a customer and Lincoln come in. She said, I don't
like the Microsoft PDF printer because it takes a picture,
it prints the pdf, it takes my word document, makes
it into a PDF, but it makes that PDF into

(39:50):
a picture and I can't copy and paste out of it.
After that, I can't do anything with it. And I said, well,
she goes, sometimes I want to go back to a
word document and you just can't do that. I can't
copy paste and paste it back into a word document.
And I said, well, why don't you just give the
document to chat gpt and ask it to make it
into a word document. She was like, I use chatchept
every day and I didn't even think of that. This

(40:11):
one was like seventy. I'm like, you use chatchpt every
day and she's like, yeah, for all kinds of stuff.
So even if you don't do it now, which is
totally legit, a lot of you are not using it
right now or using AI of any kind, your needs
are going to dramatically change for your computer over the
next five years. We're talking hockey stick of change. It's

(40:35):
going to go straight and up a little bit, and
then it's gonna go like that global warming chart that
wasn't real, but this one will be real. So don't
buy the computer, whether you're buying from Shock or from
Walmart or Costco or whatever, don't buy the computer that
you need today. Try to anticipate where your needs are
going to be a few years from now. I'm not

(40:56):
saying blow the budget out. I'm just saying, if you
think of right or like a rise in five is
what you need, maybe splurge the extra fifty bucks for
the rise in seven. If you think you need sixteen
gigs of RAM and it's only fifty or sixty dollars
more to get thirty two, maybe you should go with
the thirty two. You know, it's a way way cheaper

(41:17):
to do this when you build the computer than it
is to pay us labor to do it later, because
you're paying for parts and labor. So when you're buying
a computer, whether you're buying from Shock or anywhere else,
try not to buy what you need today. Try to
anticipate what you're going to need in the future. One
little side note before we go to our final break.
If you're going to buy a computer somewhere other than Trock,

(41:38):
we still love you. We still love you. You're still
a customer, you are still somebody who needs security software.
You're still somebody who's going to have computer problems. It's
not going to want to deal with the guy in India.
When it breaks, you're still a customer. We still love you.
You don't have to be a shame that you're gonna
buy your computer somewhere else. If somebody else has the
right computer for you, that's more right for you. We

(41:58):
had a customer the other day wanting to buy an
hp omnibook flip. We don't do two in ones. The
hinges are nightmares. They break all the flip and time,
no pun intended, So we don't sell them because we
don't want to fix them because they break a lot.
But this customer, that's what she wanted, so we ordered
it for so we get it. It's totally cool. You

(42:20):
can still be a customer not get the computer from us,
but if you're gonna buy it from somewhere else, you
can still bring in the specifications of what you're looking
at and show it to one of our technicians and
we will go through it line by line with you
to make sure that it is something that's going to
not only meet your needs today but maybe have some
room for you to grow into the future. Or we
can tell you things like this unit you want to

(42:41):
stay away from because it's not upgradeable. You can't put
anything new in it. It is what it is the
day you buy it. Instead, maybe you should look at
this unit over here, same line, same look, same hinges,
same everything. But this one is upgradeable. This one you
can add memory and hard drives to. Oh would it
never realized that? Same price, Yeah, same price. It's not
a big but this is the better buye. We'll totally

(43:02):
quote you through that, and we don't charge for that
because we want you to turn to us when you
have computer questions, because that's what we're here to do.
That's why we exist. Four zero two, five, five, eight
eleven ten. Gonna take our final break here, guys, when
we come back. The Lovely Kimberly. She's been a regular
program today. We've been talking about her a lot, and
maybe she's on my mind today. I got to spend

(43:23):
Friday with her, which is like the first day I
got to spend with her in like three weeks, so
it was it was a nice day. But she has
some advice for you to never ever ever by anything
you see on this website. I'm going to tell you
what website it is and why this one website is
responsible for thirty three percent of the successful online scams

(43:46):
on the Internet, one third of all successful scams. We've
all the ones that didn't work. We got rid of those.
These are just the ones that actually got people. One
third of them come from this website. We'll tell you
what it is coming up next on compute this.

Speaker 3 (44:01):
Shock Innovations solid state laptops are engineered locally for speed
and reliability you just.

Speaker 5 (44:07):
Can't get from the major national brands. Each of our
laptops starts off with an azoos chassis.

Speaker 3 (44:12):
We remove the stock drives and memory and upgrade them
with higher performing components. This unlocks the full potential of
the laptop, making the unit up to twenty five percent faster.

Speaker 5 (44:23):
This is why Shock solid state laptops last so much
longer than the competition.

Speaker 3 (44:28):
If your laptop starts out twenty five percent faster, that
means over time it doesn't slow down nearly as fast.

Speaker 4 (44:35):
Shock Innovations repair technicians also make house calls. Make an
appointment and let us bring our award winning computer support
right to your home or business.

Speaker 3 (44:44):
When your computer has a warranty and you have a problem,
don't call the manufacturers for help, call Shrock Innovations. Shock
will contact HP, dell, Azous, Samsung, or any other manufacturer
to arrange a warranty repair at no cost to you.

Speaker 5 (45:00):
We know how these companies work.

Speaker 3 (45:01):
We know the loopholes and the tricks to get your
system repaired under warranty as quickly as possible. Even so
manufacturers can take up to twenty one days to fix
your computer. We'll give you the option of a fast
local repair in one of our service centers, or provide
you with a loner laptop to use while you wait.
We can even back up your data before we ship
your computer, just in case. The warranty fix includes a

(45:24):
hard drive wipe. Truck tests your computer when it comes
back from repair to ensure the problem is solved properly
and all of your hardware works like new.

Speaker 5 (45:33):
There's a reason.

Speaker 3 (45:34):
Shrock Innovations is consistently voted the best in town. Whenever
you need help, wherever you need it, Throck Innovations makes
your computer work for you.

Speaker 2 (45:51):
You've got to have the whistling guy and you have
talent like this, it's criminal you have to share. No, see,
I don't have the talent four zero two, five, five,
eight eleven. Do you get better than me?

Speaker 5 (46:11):
Well?

Speaker 2 (46:11):
And that's the weird thing in front of a microphone.
You can't blow. You have to like reverse whistle. I
would probably sound like a spit wattle. So you did
better than me. Like, what is happening on this Somebody
just turned on the radio right now and they're like,
what in the actual there's a whistling guy and there's
a weird slurping sound. I don't understand what's happening, but

(46:32):
I think this is the computer show. Welcome in to
compute this. Guys. Where the Internet, including the one website
that is responsible for thirty three percent. That's one third
of all successful online scams. Of all the people who
get tricked on the Internet, one third of them get

(46:53):
tricked on Facebook. That's right, the Lovely Kimberly. This promotional
announcement brought to you by the Lovely Kimberly. Never ever
ever buy anything off Facebook, period the end. There are
no exceptions. Thank you. This message was brought to you
by Yeah. There you go. Never buy anything off Facebook.
Never click on any ads on Facebook. This is coming

(47:14):
from somebody who puts ads on Facebook. We actually have
ads on Facebook. Do not click on the ads. Our
ads are safe, of course, but I'd rather have you
not click on anyone's AD than to suddenly wonder. I
had a just a sweet, a sweet old woman come
in the other day and she was showing me her
phone and she needed me to get her WhatsApp talking

(47:34):
to her tablet, and we were trying to unify all
this stuff, and every time we opened her Facebook there
was a friend on the thing who it wasn't actually
a rear end, but it looked like a rear end,
like a like I won't go into the details, but
it looked like a butt and as a profile picture,

(47:55):
a butt moving around and it wasn't a butt. It
was like some piece of weird fruit or something that
somebody was manipulating. But yeah, it was. It was one
of the Obviously it was placed there as a profile
picture to look like a butt and to be able
to say it's not a butt, but yeah. But she
was like, I don't know this person. How did they
become my friend? Well, at some point you clicked AD,

(48:17):
you know, you made them a friend. Then maybe it
was a recommendation, maybe it slid across somewhere, or maybe
you liked one of their posts somewhere. So I went
through and removed all the weird butt ads friend people
from her Facebook, and there was like twenty of them.
We removed them all, got them all out of there. Okay,
now now she doesn't have you know, weird people in
there anymore. So check out these numbers, guys, this is insane.

(48:39):
So this is these estimates are from Meta. This is
Facebook saying the following. One third of all successful online
scams in the US originate on Facebook. How well, they're
through advertisements, So obviously people are paying Facebook to put

(49:01):
these ads up, which you would think, don't they just
have an AI to filter those out or whatever? Oh? Yeah,
they have an AI that scans every single ad and
it will block ads that it thinks are fraudulent. However,
the AI has to be ninety five percent certain that
it's a fraudulent ad before it will block it. So

(49:26):
I guess the five percent of really really really really
fraud five percent the Nigerian Princes ads don't make it through. Okay,
that's about it. Everybody knows the Nigerian prints, so those
don't make it through. Facebook served fifteen billion high quote
unquote high risk ads last year. They generated sixteen billion

(49:51):
dollars of revenue. From those ads, which was ten percent
of their total company income. But you see if people
if these you know, how like if you're a conservative
and you go on YouTube, there's a strike system and
if you say, like you know, mask don't work, mass
don't work, masks don't work, then you get banned, like
you said, at three times, you're done. You get three strikes,
you're out. It's a baseball thing. There's a three three

(50:14):
strikes and you're out. Well, Facebook also has a strike system. Well,
they will eliminate fraudulent advertisers. Well, eliminate might be a
strong word. They will raise the price of the ads
that the fraudulent advertisers are paying after five hundred strikes.

(50:36):
That is not a joke, That is not an exaggeration.
The actual number from Meta is five hundred strikes. Yes,
five hundred strikes. I'm guessing a strikes a somebody who
reports your ad. So if five hundred people report your ad,
they raise the price for your ad, they charge you
more to display it. They don't stop the fraudulent ad.

(50:59):
So every time that you block an ad on Facebook
or report an ad on Facebook, the only thing you're
actually accomplishing is getting Facebook paid more money. So yeah,
and this is all these are metas numbers. Can you
believe this? So never, guys, never buy anything off Facebook.
It's always a scam. It's always a trick. There's always

(51:19):
a catch. It's you know, Facebook marketplace, even like the
sponsored ads. Don't buy anything that's a sponsored ad. It's
one thing if you're trying to buy a car from
somebody in your neighborhood and I are on Facebook Marketplace
and that's obviously legit in most cases. But the person
selling the car that is sponsoring the sale of the

(51:41):
car like paying for an ad, so that gets in
front of you those ads. A lot of times those
are not real cars. Those are scams that people are
trying to get your information to get you in a conversation.
You know, just I saw an article about the you've
gotten these texts like the hey what's up? Text, like
just randomly from a phone number you don't know, Hi,

(52:01):
what's up? That's a fraud text. What they're going to
do if you respond to that text is they're going
to try to engage you in a conversation and develop
a relationship with you of some sort, and then eventually
they're going to convert that relationship into fraud. Whether it's
directly getting money from you, whether it's a dating thing,
whether it's go to this website, Eventually it's going to

(52:23):
be fraud. So if it's too good to be true,
it's too good to be true. With that said, the
Holiday Special, while too good to be true, is very
very much true. While supplies last, it is available, you
can come take a look at it in all four
service centers. The Holiday Special laptop is an amazing as
use Vivo book with a three K screen, big old

(52:44):
touchpad on it, backlit keyboard, the rise In AI P nine,
the rise In nine processor, and then the processor and
the Holiday Special desktop. It's the fastest one we've ever
put in a Shock desktop ever, even for custom built
for anybody. This is the fastest computer we have ever built.
The nine nine hundred X the Rise of nine ninety
nine hundred X. We had to put a cooling tower

(53:05):
inside the computer to keep this thing cool because it
generates that much power. Now, yes, do you need that
much power right now? Probably not, does anybody. I don't
even need that much power right now, But five years
from now you'll be really glad you've got it. Because
your computer five years from now is going to be
just a normal computer. And then five years after that
they'll be like, maybe it's been it's been a decade,

(53:27):
maybe it's time for an upgrade. Speaking of time for
an upgrade, Steve, congratulations, you're in the service center right now.
But you get a twenty five dollars Shock Innovations gift certificate.
We're gonna get that out to you here. I'll let
Corey know when he calls you today. I guess that
you won. But yeah, thank you for joining us for
the program. Guys, no Aftershock today. We'll see you next
week for another edition of Compute This
