old car repair

schpahky.livejournal.comHas anyone here gotten car repairs at Teele Square Auto on Broadway (across from Guru)? If so, how was it?
I have an old clunker and am looking for an honest, competent mechanic who won't rip me off. Would like to stay in Davis/Teele/East Arlington area if possible. I checked tags but most recent car posts are about street sweeping. Thanks!
ETA: Thanks for all your great feedback. I took the car to Eli at Teele Square Auto. They quoted me less than $200 for a repair another mechanic in town quoted at nearly $900 (with scare tactics). No screwing around here. The dudes are friendly, honest, and fast. Two thumbs up!

Computer hardware help?
Oct. 17th, 2008 11:52 amcontradictacat.livejournal.comI've finally decided to get my laptop fixed, so who can you recommend for fixing a almost 6-year-old laptop (IBM T40) with a 'fan error'? I've heard good things about Microcenter...any corroborating stories? Any other suggestions? Thanks!
T-accessible is nice, but not 100% necessary (as in Microcenter is a little far, but not impossible).

need a free tv stand?
Oct. 17th, 2008 03:22 pmlmc00.livejournal.comboth tv stands have been taken. thanks!
need a tv stand? my husband just put two different stands out on the sidewalk in front of 85 winthrop st near tufts (just past the danish pastry house). both are faux-oak particle board from target, but both are in good condition and can comfortably fit a 20" tube tv. first come, first serve.
* the bigger one has a shelf below the surface where you'd put the tv, and then a set of double doors below to stash your wii or whatever. on wheels.
* the smaller one is just a tv surface with another shelf below. on wheels.
thanks!
