Boise, Idaho, May 24, 2012 - Father’s Day is when we honor the patriarch of the family, go out of our way to be extra kind, and show him how much he means to us by showering him with useless, impractical gifts that only serve to remind dad that he failed to instill a good sense of “gift buying taste” in his children. So, this Father’s Day, ditch the neckties, socks, and golf accessories, and give dad the gift of frustration-free computing with a do-it-yourself computer memory upgrade from Crucial.com.
Whether he is checking email, browsing the web, working on a presentation, or secretly monitoring his kid’s Facebook page, there is nothing more disheartening than seeing “dear old dad” suffering because of a computer that has suddenly turned slow, unresponsive and unreliable. But there is hope this Father’s Day! Crucial.com offers just the right prescription for relieving Dad’s technology-induced anguish and restoring his computer performance with a smart, cost-effective memory upgrade.
“This Father’s Day why not be practical and give him something he can use,” said Ed Walker, e-commerce marketing manager of Crucial.com. “In today’s economy, Dad may not be in a position to run out and buy a new computer, but considering its relatively low cost and easy installation, a memory upgrade is one of the smartest, most cost-effective ways to improve performance, reliability and extend the life of an ailing computer. Perhaps most importantly, it’ll be one less source of stress for Dad on his special day.”
Founded on the concept of making upgrades easy for the everyday computer user, Crucial.com, a leading online destination for memory upgrades and solid state drives for nearly 15 years, provides the knowledge and tools needed to select and purchase the right computer memory upgrade for Dad.
