My experience was absolutely fantastic. I needed help with replacing a cracked screen on a laptop…read more I'd previously talked to Geek Squad and one other company in the area. Neither could give me an estimate--they needed to ship the laptop somewhere else and *then* they could give me an estimate. Portland Support gave me an estimate within an hour of me dropping it off. They did a phenomenal job with the repair for a reasonable rate. As an added bonus--their office might be my favorite office to visit. They have the coolest collection of posters I've seen. I will very happily only use them in the future.

After all that, both USB ports ended up dead and he claimed the IC chip had failed -- something that wasn't an issue before. He refunded the $50 for the port, but I still paid for the cleaning and lost a ton of time. Taking it somewhere competent. Don't take your PS5 there! It'll come back worse.

After spending forty years as a computer engineer, I thought I could change the keyboard in my own…read morelaptop. I ordered a new keyboard, looked at a youtube repair video, and realized that I was completely out of my depth. I took it to Wolfie who deftly disassembled the entire machine, discovered that I had the wrong keyboard, then built up a replacement with pieces from the old and new keyboards. This involved careful work on plastic pieces. The result has worked great now for a couple of weeks. I give Wolfie my highest recommendation.

Communication was off and on, but that's to be expected when chatting through a third party like…read morethe Yelp app. Once we hooked up, Wolfie(?) was concise and accurate about his pricing and the work I requested. It went well and I had my screen replaced in about an hour. This was on a foreign phone (Oppo Find N5, a fold phone not sold in the US) that 3 other shops declined to work on. Pricing was good also, so I give this repair service an AAA+++ rating.

NO NEW RESIDENTIAL CUSTOMERS…read more Not a review so much as a comment: I just called to see if I could get some help with upgrading my Mac to add needed memory. The voicemail states that the business is no longer supporting new residential customers (only existing residential customers with support plans). I very much appreciated the clear message so I didn't waste time leaving a voicemail and waiting on a return call. Now back to Yelp to try and find someone else.

I have a 2013 MacBook Pro with a CD drive that was starting to slow down considerably, presenting…read moreme with the beach ball of doom with just about every action I tried to take. Plus, my battery was no longer holding a charge, so I was tethered to my adapter. This is the time at which I buy a new computer. But you can't get one with the CD drive anymore, and I still use mine for my outdated exercise videos and movies on the plane. So I consulted Joseph at Portland ComputerWorks about a tune up. He recommended I increase my memory, replace the battery and get a solid state hard drive. His pricing came in at under $400.00. He also cleaned the interior and tightened the hinge for the screen. I love the result! This machine should go on now for at least two more years. It's like having a new machine! I do not live anywhere near Portland ComputerWorks, but it was Joseph's appraisal, manner and trustworthiness that made me leave my personal grid. I won't go anywhere else in the future.
