Windows 7 expiring in January 2020
Hiya Folks,
this is Matt Bentley, your local & loyal computer support technician. I've recently renamed my business from 'Waikato Home PC Support' to 'Bentley Home PC Support', in part because it's my name, and in part because the name carries connotations of esteem, riches, money, fame etc. None of which I actually have of course, but, it's always nice if people think I do ;)
Some of you may have noticed that Windows 7 is expiring in January 2020; what that means is that it will no longer receive security patches from Microsoft, which means it will be unsafe to use on the internet. I have set up a package deal where I will upgrade your Windows 7 computer to Windows 10 for $150. This includes:
(a) Checking the health of your hard drive.(b) Making a backup of the hard drive in case something goes wrong (I will keep this backup for 2 weeks just in case).
(c) Upgrading your computer to Windows 10 and installing the latest updates.
(d) Cleaning it up and disabling the Windows 10 'telemetry' (spyware).
(e) Changing settings so that it acts a bit more like Windows 7 and is more familiar.
This is mainly a drop-off service, though I can pick up depending on where you are. Please note that if you are running Windows 8, there is no need to upgrade immediately (though you can if you want to) - Windows 8 expires in 2023.
If you are running Windows Vista or Windows XP, you definitely shouldn't be using those on the internet (they expired ages ago) and should probably get a new computer. I'm happy to help with that, including selecting a new computer and transferring your data/programs to it.
So if you want to take advantage of the offer, please get in touch.
Cheers,
Matt
