Rescue
Just weeks before the company went into receivership, the Metro Interactive Design group owned by Glenn Bluff with brands including PC Service Centre, Drivermagic, ehelp4u, HijackThisPro PC Trouble, computerhope UK and askDrtech attempted to enter the retail market by entering a joint venture with the ComputerShop. The potential rescue would have meant Metro ID would operate an in-store repair centre called PCservicecentre.com and offer installations at home similar to the offering of PC World's Know-how business. The company was also going to operate its famous No Fix, No Fee repair policy.

Famous quotes containing the word rescue:
“It was his peculiar doctrine that a man has a perfect right to interfere by force with the slaveholder, in order to rescue the slave. I agree with him.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“When in the sea-light every early game
Was played with love and, if death’s waters came,
You’d rescue me. How I would take you from,
Now, if I could, its whirling vacuum.”
—Howard Moss (b. 1922)
“The personal touch between the people and the man to whom they temporarily delegated power of course conduces to a better understanding between them. Moreover, I ought not to omit to mention as a useful result of my journeying that I am to visit a great many expositions and fairs, and that the curiosity to see the President will certainly increase the box receipts and tend to rescue many commendable enterprises from financial disaster.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
