Post by: Computer Hope Admin on August 22, 2008, 01:45:52 AM

"Knock knock. AT&T here to set up your computer!"

AT&T has decided to jump into the home computer/TV repair game by launching a new service called ConnecTech that will be available for residential customers in all 50 states, whether they're AT&T customers or not. Through ConnecTech, customers will be able to get home theater installation, computer and home network setup, and a slew of TV, computer, and network repairs right from the comfort of their own homes.

For sure, I'd imagine they'd definately be looking for computer experts since I'm sure many if not all of the people they currently have are not specialists with computers.
