I'd definitely fix someone's computer if that was my job. I'd do it if they know what's the difference between it and dev and they ask me at the right time and don't ask me to do it right now.

leuu568yOh god, and this person is if course a relative so you can't say no, you say yes and they come with 4 laptops and an external HDD and asks you to fix 2 of the laptops, change the SO language of one and backup the 4th. Oh, and install some games while you are on it.
