If I'm someone that needs to take my computer to the shop, how would I identify something as suspicious? I'm A certified, and I love browsing in BestBuy near the repair counter and listening to the BS spewing from the lips of the con artists who work there. I don't totally blame them though, it's a policy thing by my understanding. BB doesn't even properly equip their techs. What exactly do you mean by suspicious looking objects?
