I have been repairing computers * for a living * since 1996.



Among the things I do:

  • $40 for a complete system cleanout w/ backup

  • Free Diagnostic
    Machine won't boot or update? Keeps rebooting or just real slow? Bring it by so we can figure out if the problem is hardware or software and how much it would cost. Why pay first? If it is something you don't want to spend the money to fix, you haven't spent anything to let me check it out for you. If I don't fix it, I don't charge. (Although I reserve the right not to diagnose computers for folks who want to go into business for themselves... which is where bad feedback comes from :-)

  • I make housecalls
    To help with getting online, setting up the printer, or just to pick up (if you have trouble getting out)
    $20 if you keep me less than an hour (in town)

  • Virus removal
    ...for gosh sakes, if you get an FBI warning, or Microsoft wants you to give them a call -- give me a call first! I guarantee that calling me will save you money and/or aggravation. Some message claiming to be from Microsoft, popping up to cover your screen, that wants you to CALL THEM -- is ALWAYS a scam. Period.

  • Sell Computers
    If you want a great laptop or PC, and don't want to throw away hundreds of dollars...

  • Buy Old PCs
    and laptops for parts, so if you'd like a little cash for something
    that doesn't work or you no longer use,
    drop by and get something for it!

  • Laptop screen replacement (and a few tablets and phones...)
    Most laptop screens (new) cost about $80-$90 total (including shipping and labor.) If I have a used one I'll charge you $50. Just call in with your laptop model number and I will get back to you with an exact quote. Phones and tablets vary wildly. Some are not worth the expense, others definitely are. As an example, the digitizer screen on a Samsung 7" galaxy Tab 4 costs $45, total. Sorry, but I don't do iphones.

  • Data Recovery
    Pictures, documents, music, old tax PDFs... these are usually more important to people than the machines themselves... So I take backup very seriously. I can save any data you require, usually even from formatted drives (which happens at the hands of many amateur "computer guys".)

  • Answer lots of questions
    I use my cell for busines and am more than happy to help you all I can over the phone... I don't feel a need to nickel-and-dime people for every little thing. If I help you out you will come back when you need some real work done :-)

  • You like Alternatives to Windows, like Linux?
    I created and maintain Absolute Linux... been around for a long time. Its a Slackware derivative that is super-fast and hackable. If you're a real computer afficianado, you could fall in love with it just to make your own version!

  • i DO NOT repair any Apple products.
    For one thing, PCs keep me plenty busy, and I can't be an expert on everything. Also, I believe Apple purposely makes their products difficult for third parties to service, so I simply avoid the hassle.
