I contacted him the next day and handed over the laptop (which would not boot up) after a brief but thorough consultation. What I particularly enjoyed about Dean's service was his constant communication with me throughout the repair process. I was kept updated at all times. In 36 hours I had my laptop back up and running, all the data in-tact (with no rush fee or anything like that) for an excellent price. We discussed my typical usage and he provided some awesome insight into how to use the computer less intensively, but achieve the same results. Really satisfied with the entire interaction. Good service is important to me.

The owner (Gary) and his staff were REALLY knowledgeable about all their products and had a great selection. I purchased the prefect laptop for my needs and the cost was lower than I expected.

I highly recommend Tesseract and the fact that they are locally owned gets my vote!! Check them out .

My Toshiba laptop pulled a 'slow one' on me. After a reboot, Windows 8.1 failed to start. After…read morehours of looking for solutions on the 'net (not enough drive space to Refresh), I took it into Tesseract and Gary diagnosed the problem immediately as a failing hard drive and suggested installing my laptop's hard drive in an external case and transferring all of my folders to another computer while the drive was still (somewhat) working, thereby saving a number of files that I hadn't backed up yet. Gary removed the drive from my laptop, installed it in a new external case, tested it and all was good. Saved everything! Thanks a million Gary! Cost? $25 + tax. While in the store I overheard Gary detailing the features of a refurbished Lenovo laptop that came with Windows 10 Pro, 8GB RAM and other features all at a great price (it compared more than favorably with other units offered by computer sellers in Victoria). I bought one. Comes with a 1 year warranty. It's been 3 weeks and I'm very pleased with this machine (Lenovo T540P). I chose Tesseract because I've been impressed with Gary's contributions to Tech Talk on CFAX radio in addition to recommendations from a friend who has had good experiences with this company.
