Now more than ever, at least for the general public.  Still, I'd expect 
an honest computer tech to recognize the issue and not overcharge for 
the exchange.  Yes, you can grab some short-term profits by making 
things sound worse than they are, but you can get lots of 
recommendations to friends by telling the truth, and that means more 
customers and more long-term revenue.
