John Compton is good. I have been using his services for about five years. He nursed my old Windows PC so I could extend it another year or so. When it got too small for my needs John put together a super fast 4-screen machine. He takes care of keeping the system clean and up to date, a task I don't like and so am no good at. He is a savior. His service is mostly done remotely. Last I saw him was installing the new machine. He is intimate with the crooks and crannies of the various support tools and diagnostics for tuning and analyzing, and when the upgrade version is needed or not. I am paranoid about loosing data, so he has several kinds of backups going. Meets my need for peace of mind. He is fast with a sharp diagnostic mind, and ingenious. I have no problem recommending him. ... Tom Budlong read more
