My computer recently experienced an unexpected crash, which left many heads scratching. When I…read morediscussed this on the phone with the owner Ben, he immediately knew the cause and proposed a solution. I took the computer in, and, after determining that the hard drive was no longer good, Ben then proposed a solution, which he worked on fast and efficiently, reassuring me that he was on top of things. But the most eye catching aspect of this business is the personal touch and first rate customer service, patience and communication. Ben takes the time to carefully explain every issue to people...shall we say, far less computer literate than he is. This is a most welcome perk in an age when customer service, courtesy and communication seem to be completely lost on this generation in any given field of business or service. That alone convinced me to consider Ben for all my future computer issues.

A few weeks ago my laptop screen went black while working, and I was unable to get it to reopen…read moreWindows. I was panic-stricken because I had work deadlines to meet, so I began a search for help as quickly as possible. Ben at MT Computers in Vista was the first place I reached after leaving messages for several others. He told me not to worry and to bring my laptop over to MT Computers, which I did. After updating me with his plan for a course of action and price estimates, he fixed the problem, updated Windows 10 to Windows 11, and ordered a replacement battery. He returned my laptop to me in less than 24 hours, which I really appreciated, and told me that he would let me know when the replacement battery came it. Meanwhile, I could work on my laptop. The replacement battery came in a few days later, I ran over to his shop, and he replaced the battery in about 10 minutes while I waited. However, the battery would not charge up as it should, so I replaced the power adaptor to rule that out (they're cheap), but still the battery would not charge. When I let Ben know, he ordered another new battery, and installed it. Still the battery would not charge, so he ordered a third battery, this time from another vendor. I ran my laptop over one more time, he replaced the battery again in about 10 minutes, and the third battery was a charm! Ben was very kind, reassuring, pleasant, and patient with me. I highly recommend Ben and MT Computers to anyone in the Vista area in need of prompt and efficient computer servicing with great communication and a smile. Thanks again, Ben and MT Computers . You're the best! (Modern Tech Computers @ 760-727-8038)

I'm able to setup three external monitors plus the laptop screen allowing me four screens for trading. I have not had any issues with this system and it truly is the best laptop that I've owned.

WARNING AND BEWARE: Todd Martin claims to be a Systems Engineer, 1st Class Computer Solutions, 200…read moreOlive Ave., Vista, CA 760-643-1227. HE IS LESS THAN REPUTABLE. On November 14, 2025, I hired Todd to set up my new Personal Computer (PC) that I purchased that day from Costco in Vista, CA. In addition to the initial Computer Set-Up for $50.00 Todd stated that additional work was needed, such as the following, to have the PC working properly. "TRANSFER DATA FROM OLD PC TO NEW PC, FORMAT OLD DRIVE, SETUP ONE DRIVE ON NEW PC and SETUP LOCAL BACKUPS" all for $200. I approved the additional work to have a working PC. After he left my residence, I started the computer and found that he did not complete the additional work assignments and called him and requested that he return to my home. He said he would return the next day. On November 15, 2025, TODD WAS NO SHOW. I called Todd 760-643-1227 Todd several times with no answer and left several messages. I later called him from a different phone number and he answered. Todd stated that he would refuse to return to my home and only wanted me to allow him to work on my computer "REMOTELY" which would allow him full and complete access to my Personal, Business and Confidential information. I refused to allow his REMOTE services and again requested that he return and complete his services or a refund of $200 Rather than discuss the issue, he HUNG UP THE PHONE. As of January 11, 2026, (the date of this post) Todd has refused to cooperate and or return and complete the work assignment or return my money. I contacted the Fraud Unit at my Credit Card Company and filed a Fraud Complaint. I searched the San Diego County Superior Court Records and found several cases where Todd Martin had been involved in several questionable cases involving Real Estate Realtors, Automobile Dealers and assorted criminal Fraud cases. I'm desirous of prosecution. Santos Sal G.

He remembered me right away from previous work and quickly began assessing my issues remotely. When you have a small issue and you are just one person, not a huge business, you just don't expect to feel like a top priority--however, Don had no problem making me feel exactly that way! He found the issue quickly and gave me full support when I went to go through a warranty issue with a giant online entity. It was so great to see the care and thoroughness of his solution laid out in simple terms, easy to understand and follow. Do not hesitate to contact Don with any IT concerns.

Instead they tried to tell me I need much more expensive repairs. I order the JB weld for $6 and fixed it myself. Now the owner is out $100 and get a bad review for being dishonest. Edit: owner is also a liar trying to defend his dishonesty. I've attached a picture of our conversation in Yelp. Edit 2: oh so you didn't lie about talking to me you just so overwhelmed you couldn't remember all the people that you spoke to which is why you said you didn't speak to me. And you're not dishonest you are incompetent because you had to quote a much more expensive repair instead of doing quick repair. Makes sense considering you are so overwhelmed with business that you would immediately try and push a longer more expensive repair instead of a quick JB weld job. People if you do business with this man you deserve what you get.

Long story short, I dropped my laptop awhile back that caused minor damage where I was able to just…read morepop the pieces back together. Fast forward to about a month ago where I closed my laptop lid and CRACK - something happens where basically the bezel, back over, and hinge gets damaged to the point where it looks like I ripped it apart when I open my laptop back up. Tried to fix it and somehow made it worse by messing up the screen and man, I've done my fair share of taking computers apart before but I wasn't going to mess with my laptop after this series of unfortunate events. Cue Eric! I reached out to a couple of repair guys for a quote and Eric gave me the best one AND the hope that my laptop could be saved (I had a couple others tell me it wasn't worth the fix; mind you, my computer itself worked fine still - I just had to plug in an external monitor to get anything productive done). He was timely with messages, and even let me know that some parts were missing for repair and ordered it for me. His quote was reasonable in comparison to the cost of a brand new laptop and now that I've had it back for a couple weeks; I can honestly say it feels brand new. Appreciate his quickness and his expertise, would definitely come back for any silliness I encounter with computers down the road. Thanks, Eric!
