If that's his outlook, and he in fact is a computer technician, that's about right.
Most computer technicians don't know what they are talking about. Sorry, but it's true. (Note, I'm talking about people that have companies that fix peoples computers and sell refurbished/hand built stuffmachines, a lot of them have average to good knowledge but just tell people what they want to hear/what the technician wants to happen for more money because they are respected in a sense)
If that long run on sentence made any sense.
