Peter was able to come over with very short notice when I was available, my old one died my new one arrived and I had to go out of town. I asked what he suggested, advising I wanted to transfer what was on the broken one over. Rather than come to see the broken one and then come back he said it would be better value to be there when all arrived, if that was acceptable. He arrived on time and prepared after a brief exchange of what my concerns were. He reviewed my systems and gave some suggestions, explained some new tech things I wasn't aware of was very generous about is time and his expertise. His rates are extremely reasonable, if you don't think so shop around you will see. Peter didn't try to sell me anything or talk over my head, he was clear, kind and extremely knowledgeable. Peter is not out to bilk you he is out to take care of you as an ongoing customer. I can tell you that I have a few pc's and gadgets and I will from know on use Peter exclusively for our home. I suggest that if you have any issues give him a call. He will come to you and let you know what can be done and even surpass what you expected. I needed to transfer a lap tops info that had died to a new one, he not only was able to do that but figured out that my old lap top was in deed fixable, he gave me two laptops for the price of time I expected only one it. Cheers Peter you are awesome!

The guy is worth what he charges and then some. Here is an update: Peter is a very cordial guy but you have to be very careful because he charges by the minute for casual converation that he considers "educatIon". If you retain him, lay out EXACTLY what you want and have him do just that. I regret saying he is worth what he charged. My mistake.

The power supply on my computer died. The computer is 12 years old and really not worth fixing…read more But the data on that computer is really quite valuable. Of course I made a backup of that SATA disk drive before I came to Oak Harbor, and that backup is sitting on a shelf... in Seattle. However, the data on that drive is probably okay. So all I need to do is get the data off of that drive. My first thought was, "Okay, I will just go to Walmart or Office depot and get a USB to SATA cable for on the order of $10-$20." Except that none of those places actually had the cable in stock. The nearest place that actually had one was in Seattle, and if I have to go back to get the cable, I might as well just get the drive off the shelf and recover that way. So then I went to Pioneer computer, and explained to them my problem - with the complication that the file system on that drive is EXT4. No problem, "Kenny" knows all about Linux. He recovered all of the data I needed, ahead of schedule and precisely on budget. Here is the best part. They knew that they could sell me a new computer, that I could use with that disk They had a couple of dozen machines for sale, at what I thought were reasonable prices. They did *not* try to sell me a new computer. An important caveat: They're busy - as all successful businesses are. So they are not so good at returning phone calls, at least not today. But if you go there, in person, then they will take good care of you, right away. When I was a sysadmin, I used a similar system to triage my work load. E-mail: low priority. Phone call: medium priority. In-person: highest priority. Zoom call: a little complicated. Nice work, Kenny.

The phone message he left letting me know it was ready indicated his lack of understanding of the original issue. When I went to pick up the computer, both he and the owner yelled at me, treated me like an idiot, and insisted I told them something that I did not. They downloaded new software that I did NOT request, requiring hours of work on my part to repair settings and restore directories. I will not return if I can possibly help it. They may be competent, but they do not open their ears to listen to the customer.

When I contacted The Tranquil Computer, I received a call back quickly. They were amazing and precise and the owner said, "We like to treat people like we like to be treated." And that rings true from first contact to job completion. I am thrilled and even more so that this company goes beyond the call of duty - there were eight recommendations when I picked up my computer, from which security company to use (and already added with a 30 day trial) and some troubleshooting comments. This company will be my company of choice for future computer problems! Thanks Gail and Bruce
