The team diagnosed the issue quickly--it turned out to be a damaged power jack--and had it fixed the same day! Their service was professional, and they took the time to explain what was wrong without using confusing tech jargon. The pricing was very reasonable for the quality of work, and I appreciated that there were no surprise fees. It's hard to find computer repair shops that are both trustworthy and affordable, but Luchino really delivered on both fronts. If you need reliable tech support, this is the place to go!

Alan is one of those guys that you meet that on first blush may seem like he's selling you a lot of…read moregear you don't need. I'm a former technology journalist and he had stuff I hadn't heard of. I ran his gear past people in the know who said "yeah, that's good." A sidenote: Sometimes Alan is slow to get back to you on phone or iMessage. He's booked solid. I don't like it any more than you do. But in the bay every single good professional is like this, because they are inundated with calls and need to do in-person evaluations to do a good job. I wish the world was easier too guys. Sorry. Alan did a giant (119") 1080p surround sound installation in my loft in Oakland late last year. It was costly, and Alan worked with me to bring down said cost with explanations behind every bit of rational and actual links to what he was getting. Alan also let me use gear I already had, which meant that the actual installation itself was quite confusing to look at at the end. I was furious, and not particularly nice to Alan afterward thinking he'd broken everything. No, what he'd actually done was an intricate, cost-effective amp/ethernet installation, built through the *ceiling*, leading to my aged receiver, to the speakers I had provided. In essence, if you know stuff about a/v, once you bring in someone's potentially bashed-up gear into the situation it effectively is a gamble to see what will work with what. Alan not only made it all work, including with a receiver that I would frankly describe as aged, he recommended the right places to save money to still have the effect I wanted - an awesome home theater. It came out looking and sounding amazing, and more importantly removable. He taught me in a non-condescending manner what he did and why he did it, and made a clear promise (and actually booked time to) fix any problems. There were no problems. Any anger I had was that I didn't understand how it worked and the only criticism I could give was Alan didn't leave a manual of his work. Alan is not cheap. Alan is also - and I use this term very rarely - an actual artist. He wants the thing to look and sound perfect. I just hired Alan to do a second job he has not started yet, and he talked me OUT of spending $3000+ on a new projector screen and $2000 on a new projector, telling me to keep my quite-adequate plasma screen, as it'd be just as good. I am sort of a gadget/network person and know what I'm talking about. If you want a cheap guy to do an okay job, don't hire Alan. Don't waste is time. He will charge what he charges for the gear at the price it comes out at (if not cheaper, and believe me I've checked). If you want someone to put down some cheap CAT cables and some HDMI cables he found on Monoprice and Amazon, give them a call. Alan is an actual professional who knows a lot. I take umbrage at anyone claiming Alan "focuses on dollars more than customer service." My own personal experience, even when I was not the most calm (calling him at 2:30am GMT from England, where I was at the time of installation), is that he cares more about customer service than most A/V people I've run into. And knows more than them too. Overall, what you get is the closest you can to professional at a consumer price. It's not cheap. It never will be if you want something that'll last, sound good and look good. If you want constant download speeds/constant signal throughout your home, Alan is going to find *what will do it.* To S.B.: I do not know specifically what equipment you were left with by Alan, however I have spoken to him about the networking gear he uses, which (I used to sell WIFI/WAN/LAN gear commercially) is Unifi/Ubiquiti gear. This prices much the same as a Netgear Nighthawk/high-end ASUS router, and gives superior service all around. Alan is not just a guy who knows things about audio/visual, he is actually very smart and knows about networking gear too. I do not believe you were sold a $1000 router. I imagine you were sold a $1000 setup which would cover your entire house. The WIFI never really working properly? Not really sure. And if it's 5x the price of a Mac airport - your comparison point - I'm gonna go ahead and say your knowledge on networking product is deficient. That's an $84.99 or $184.99 router, and if you're using that as a comparison point you're not buying a Netgear Nighthawk, Asus AC87U or Unifi AP AC - all of which are on the upper end of the routing scale and are the only routers a real professional would use. If your new guy used these as your comparison points. If you want your signal and your download speeds to be consistent and the signal to be constant across the house, you need good gear. This is not cheap gear and Alan is not a "cheap" provider who "just gets things done." I've got no fiscal benefit in having him around. I choose to spend tens of thousands of dollars with the man because he's just that damn good.

Many shops I've contacted about the job either turn me down due to the difficulty, quote a very high price for labor, or don't believe that it would solve my thermal issues. I had to travel this month though and couldn't bring my cooling setup. I called up R&R for the job and asked if they could do same-day. They said bring it in. Unlike other IT/PC repair shops that ask me details of the problem and sorta scratch their heads at my request, Robert described in detail the problem I had with my laptop and the complexity of the job required (This wasn't a simple take off the cover and slap some paste, this was dismantling much of the innards). The thing is, *I didn't tell Robert what PC I had or what the job was*, he said that he assumed I had an Alienware since I said I had a laptop with thermal issues. Robert's not simply good at his job, he's passionate about his craft and actively seeks to learn new techniques to do his craft better. Robert got my PC fixed up in 3 hours with the thermal repasting ,and fixing up the heatsink. The thermals are down 25C and my PC feels amazing. Even though the job took 3 hours, Robert quoted the job to 1 hour of labor, and committed to it. R&R Consultants is an amazingly professional duo who don't simply do their job to pay the bills.

All those annoying little tech glitches that took up time or mental space? GONE. More than that, Travis took my list of "fix its" and walked through my small business info/tech from a management perspective. He quickly, systematically optimized my systems, step-by-step -- and now my online scheduling, calendaring, contact management, backups, data storage are all simplified and running better. Travis also suggested steps we can take in the future to get my technology running more simply and efficiently, too. He offered his guidance with a light touch - kind & with a sense of humor, too. I was amazed at all we got done and think that, with Travis's help, maybe I'll be able to learn & take advantage of all the capabilities of my Mac operating systems & tools. What a relief to get "technology" off my plate. He was worth every penny & I now consider Marin Mac Tech an indispensable part of my small biz team.

He's also come to the comfort of my home & rescued all of my old music and photos off of my old PCs. &, not only did he transfer all my old files, but he took the old tower & laptop to recycle (maybe that's because I'm so close to the recycling place & he had to make a trip any way, but hey, that's service at its best!).
