Transitioning to a "free" email isn't entirely cost-free at the outset, as there's quite a bit involved in switching emails. If you're comfortable handling it yourself, here are the three steps you'll need to take:

Why You Should buy a Laptop from a Computer Repair Shop

Why You Should buy a Laptop from a Computer Repair Shop

We hate broken computers, that’s why we love fixing them! And the one thing we hate more than a broken computer coming in, is a customer thinking they’ve got a great deal from a local laptop reseller, but instead they;’ve been tricked into buying a lemon. That makes us sad.
