Alistair was one of the few people I contacted who reached back out within a day of my initial…read morephone call. Also, I had gone back and forth with technical support with several different people from my internet and equipment companies, none of whom were very helpful or empathetic to what was going on. Alistair was able to come out, take a look at what was going on, offer solutions that were logical and reasonable, and was very affordable. Being told several times I needed "an IT department" to fix my problems, Alistair was the best choice I could have made for my ~1 hour of technical support needed. Highly recommend.

I had just spent a considerable amount of money on high-end PC parts for a new build. I assembled…read morethe computer, but ran into issues installing and updating the operating system. It was clearly a hardware problem that I could not figure out. I double and triple checked my work, checked the seating of all the components, and was at a loss to figure out what the problem was. I have experience building PCs, so making the decision to drop it off at a shop was unthinkable. However, after talking to Darin over the phone, he assured me he could troubleshoot my assembly and if necessary isolate any faulty components on the bench in time for me to RMA them. I dropped my computer off shortly before they closed for the Labor Day weekend, and had a very pleasant conversation with Darin and Jesse. They are two sharp guys who genuinely care about providing a superior level of customer service as well as some creative and valuable learning opportunities about computers for local kids. Chris gave me a call a few days later and let me know that after confirming that my assembly was done correctly and all the parts were functioning properly, the problem came down to a year old BIOS version on my brand new motherboard, something that had never occurred to me to check. They were able to flash it then get Win 11 installed and fully updated. They performed stress and thermal tests on all my parts and Darin personally insisted on carrying my box to my car when I came to pick it up. As a parting gift, he gave me what was probably the deepest dive into case fan configuration and airflow that I'd ever had with a sane human being. So far it's running great, and the cost was quite a bit less than I'd expected to have to pay. This isn't exactly the sort of service I have any desire to need an a regular basis, but if I did, I wouldn't hesitate to give these guys a call. I would recommend them to anybody who was in need of any of the services they perform. It's really easy to support a good group of people doing good work.
