Ok, I sent my 2011 MacBook Pro with the GPU failure in to Adam for his RealMacMods.com permanent repair. Email communication was fairly good and my MacBook is indeed working again with the Radeon GPU disabled and running on the integrated Intel GPU. The only thing keeping my review from being a 5 star is that Adam's initial inquiry about getting my MacBook fixed was that "these usually go out the day after they are received" and it took several weeks to get my MacBook back and there was a short time when I got no response to my inquiries as to when it might be done. I saw the 2 low reviews here in Yelp and got a little concerned. I know that anyone might have a problem with a particular machine repair unexpectedly taking a long time and it's always possible that a machine might be damaged during shipping. I also know that IT Elite Computer Serv. and RealMacMods.com have many dozen great reviews on Google and I can attest to the fact that my machine was fixed and shipped back to me in fine condition once they got to it. The fix was $85 plus return shipping and insurance and it was well worth it to get my MacBook working again! Any repair company can get overwhelmed with a lot of business at one time but as long as you know up front that it will take several weeks to get the job done, I think they do a fine job.

Adam is amazing, I called on a Monday in a panic about my computer. He started on it right away and let me know on Tuesday that he would start cloning to recover information. Today Wednesday I have a completely updated machine with updates and all my original information restored. He is reasonably priced and work in a very quick manor to get me up and running. Would definitely recommend his services! read more

I sent two HP Dragon laptops (one for spare parts) to Adam Barscheski for upgrade in late 2016. After Adam received my laptops he provided me with a list of parts that I would need to purchase from him to complete the upgrade, which I did. After nearly 2 years with my laptops, Adam finally stated that he was unable to complete the upgrade and that he would be returning my laptops to me in mid-May of 2018 (see email below) which he did not do. To this date, Adam has not returned my laptops, nor has he provided any update as to the status of my return even after repeated requests to do so via phone, mail, email, and text. At this point, I have given IT Elite Computer Service until the end of August 2018 to return my properly at which point I will file a stolen property report with the local police department as well as any further legal action needed to secure the return of my property. I hope this review helps others avoid the suffering I have endured as a result of doing business with this disreputable company. ***** Copy of Email: From: Adam adam@itelite.org Sent: Monday, May 14, 2018 7:24 AM To: *****@****.com Subject: Re: HP Dragon Laptop Yes, I will have them packed up and shipped back this week. Thank You, Adam Barscheski Adam@itelite.org https://itelite.org 484-668-1365 ***** UPDATE 08-29-2018 My laptops were returned to me 08-27-2018 after asking for there return via text, phone, email, and USPS correspondence multiple times with no response over a 3 month span of time, and only after having notified Adam Barscheski of pending legal action. However, my laptops (these are 20" inch HP Dragon laptops which weight nearly 25 pounds each) were shipped back to me in a single box with relatively the same width as the laptops, poorly packaged (the laptops were stacked on top of each other) and both laptops were heavily damaged in shipping. I had initially been assured that they would be shipped with care, below is a quote from an email I received regarding how my items might be carefully shipped: "As far as packing, a thus far successful method i have used for high value, fragile items has been to get some ply wood and build a wooden box on the interior walls of the cardboard shipping box. Then pack with bubble wrap accordingly to keep it from moving around. - Adam" This has been a miserable and disappointing experience which ultimately resulted in a complete loss of irreplaceable property. Response to Comment 09-05-2018 I did file an insurance claim on the package. The postal carrier commented that the contents were poorly packaged and padded as evidenced by the damage most especially to the corners of the box which were completely exposed. Further, the amount of the insured contents was somewhat below the amount 'I' paid for the laptops in 2016. Both laptops and parts exceeded the insured value and I have receipts (which I provided to USPS) to show this. I simply wanted my laptops returned to me in good faith and in one piece, and without having to ask for there return endlessly without any response after multiple attempts to contact IT Elite. As far as the offer with regards to parts, no thank you, I'd prefer not to prolong the agony of working with IT Elite any longer. read more

I sent my MacBook Pro in for repair of the faulty video chip which Adam confirmed he could repair. There was quick turn around and my MBP was working when it was returned to me via USPS. However, I noticed that the battery was not charging and when I looked further the top right corner of the computer was damaged. Looks like it had been dropped and the power input was no longer working. I emailed Adam with pictures but there has been no response at all. Don't know if the computer was sent insured or if he knows anything about the damage. I was able to quickly backup the files with the remaining battery power but it is exhausted and now lies dead on my table top. read more

Adam at IT Elite computer services goes beyond the call of duty to try to help me solder and replace a tab used for the lcd screen on a board for my Amazon kindle on top of trying to help me install a wireless card on an old outdated IBM laptop. Hard to find technician that do more then their call of duties. read more

Don't give up on your MacBook pro if your GPU failed. Mine failed twice, and Adam performed the hardware and software fixes after the second time. Apple did the first repair, and it lasted almost three years. I really think Adam has found the ideal way to extend the life of these computers. Sent it to him, exchanged some e-mail messages, he bypassed the discrete processor for a Great price, and he sent it right back. He has the solution...thanks again Adam read more

I had stopped in and spoke with Adam about my tv which had a black screen. He checked the t.v. and called me to say that my led on my tv had gone bad. He lent me a tv while my tv was getting fixed. His prices were very reasonable he's very knowledgeable and I would highly recommend him to everyone read more
