Weekly updates are super. Probably wouldn’t cost more than $100 or so added onto the bill...

They “GAVE ME A WEEKLY UPDATE” every Friday by email or phone call, to tell me the status of my computer! Every week, I knew what was happening to my computer, (1) had they received it? (2) Were they working on it? (3) What have they found? (4 ) What problems have they encountered?  (5) Is it fixed? (6) Have they sent it back to me?
