Computers and Strategies: ED Perspective

Article Abstract:

Having a toolbox handy can save both time and money for a small or large business. In some instances, a computer can be repaired by its operators if they have proper instructions and an adequate tool set. However, owners who are inexperienced in computer repairs should attempt to fix only minor mishaps. A toolbox containing three Phillips-Head screwdrivers, three standard blade screwdrivers, wrenches, a flashlight, pliers, a light soldering iron and plastic electrical tape is adequate.
