Hey Gang!! I'm glad you stumbled across my page and it's a work in progress!
Maybe you're looking for a computer repair, upgrade, support or a recommendation? I'm here to help you solve problems.
Look, I'm just retired from a full time career with a top business in North America. My customers enjoyed what I brought to the table, but I missed being in this world where I can bring my brand of service to you.
I've been working with computers since 1979 and check out below for the sorts of things I'm interested in doing. No. I am not interested in writing more software, but I can definitely advise.😉
Got a computer with a wonky drive? Keep getting the BSOD (Blue Screen of Death)? Want to breathe new life into an older system?
Let's Talk!
Let's find the best solution that will stay within your budget.
Need help finding an obscure driver? Don't know what a driver is?? Software giving you errors? Printer not working properly? inundated with spyware, adware or just plain wacky ware? Maybe it's time for a new operating system?
If it's related to software behaving badly, I can help. Drop off service or remote access, let me know what you need and I'll get it done quickly and affordably!
Recovering family photos and documents from damaged devices is one of the black arts of computing. Luckily (or unluckily) they're not gone until they're really gone.
Be warned that you best backup everything you can beforehand because there is a very real risk of data loss. And speaking of backing up, when was the last time you took steps to save your critical data?
Whether it's backing up, recovering or transferring, let's get it done!
Hey, are you worried you know nothing about computers? Feel you paid too much for stuff you really didn't need? Wish you could hold your own with the tech guy at the computer store?
I host monthly seminars in the area with no charge (and no "pitches" ) to teach you about the technology without going down the rabbit hole of techno babble. Of course, if you like the way I deal with people, maybe when you need something you'll think of me!!
(I've heard I'm fun and have many anecdotes from real life. Note that some names may have been changed for common decency.)
Shoot me a line and I'll let you know where and when the next will be, or if you want to organize something just let me know!
Wait.
I get it.
NONE of the minimum wage geeky nerd services 😉 will touch what's arguably the top alternative to MS Windows for PC. They will NOT remove a Windows install even though you, the client, ask!!.
Linux is free to download and use, you get regular updates, there's over 70.000 software packages, and counting, multiple languages, it's nowhere near as invasive as Windows, yes you can run a lot of Windows software on Linux - and it's FREE!
Did I say FREE? Here's the thing with Linux; You will need some tech support for the nuts and bolts until you become proficient - kinda like the first time you touched a computer. The thing is, your support really NEEDS to know what they're doing and that's why commercial geeky nerdy overpriced support won't touch it.
But I'm your huckleberry (Which is the State flower of Idaho).
I will give you the straight goods and help you break free of the BS. Hey, the ONLY reason I run windows in a virtual machine at all is to provide support for it!
