Got New Tech For Christmas? We Can Help You Set It Up!

Chief Problem Solver from Your Computer Guy

Everyone loves new tech on the holidays. But is that device ready to go out of the box? What will you do with the data on your old device? We can help you set it up - the right way!

New computers typically include a lot of junkware and apps that you are never going to use. The most common ones are trial versions of antivirus software - typically, McAfee, Norton, or TrendMicro. It will work for 30 days and then leave you unprotected asking you to pay $80+ for "comprehensive" protection that slows down your computer.

We'll remove any junkware and apps that will slow your computer down, get all the necessary updates and patches, install any software you would like AND ensure that you have the proper anti-virus software installed (yes, even if it's a Mac).

We'll also transfer all your data over from your old machine so it's safe and secure, and help you set up a back-up system you don't have to think about.
