[ale] Local laptop repair facilities

[runman at speedfactory.net (runman at speedfactory.net)]

A friend dropped his Dell laptop and now it won't boot up. It sounds
like the HD is starting, but nothing on the screen.  The hard drive has
several corrupted files, but I believe it can be reformatted and the OS
re-installed.  It is not under any warranty.  Does anyone have any
recommendations on local laptop repairs ??

TIA,

Greg
