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:
“Here I pause in my sojourning, giving thanks for having come,
come to trust, at every turning, God will guide me safely home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger, wandering from the fold of God,
Came to rescue me from danger, precious presence, precious blood.”
—Robert Robinson (1735–1790)
“In the event of an oxygen shortage on airplanes, mothers of young children are always reminded to put on their own oxygen mask first, to better assist the children with theirs. The same tactic is necessary on terra firma. There’s no way of sustaining our children if we don’t first rescue ourselves. I don’t call that selfish behavior. I call it love.”
—Joyce Maynard (20th century)
“Hygiene is the corruption of medicine by morality. It is impossible to find a hygienest who does not debase his theory of the healthful with a theory of the virtuous.... The true aim of medicine is not to make men virtuous; it is to safeguard and rescue them from the consequences of their vices.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
