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:
“The individual woman is required ... a thousand times a day to choose either to accept her appointed role and thereby rescue her good disposition out of the wreckage of her self-respect, or else follow an independent line of behavior and rescue her self-respect out of the wreckage of her good disposition.”
—Jeannette Rankin (1880–1973)
“I positively like the sense, when I dine out, and stoop to rescue a falling handkerchief, that I am not going to rub my shoulder against a heart. What are hearts doing on sleeves?”
—Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)
“To rescue our children we will have to let them save us from the power we embody: we will have to trust the very difference that they forever personify. And we will have to allow them the choice, without fear of death: that they may come and do likewise or that they may come and that we will follow them, that a little child will lead us back to the child we will always be, vulnerable and wanting and hurting for love and for beauty.”
—June Jordan (b. 1939)
