Fix Your Own Computer.
Our favorite comic strip. Nerdy, sometimes dirty, but very wise and heartfelt.
XKCD.
We build home office and small business networks. Need to get multiple computers working together, sharing information, using the Internet, and printing to the same printers? No problem.
We troubleshoot networks, particularly wireless setups. Are you concerned about wireless security? We can set up a secure wireless network, and train you in the process so you'll know how to maintain it in the future.
We're experts in remote connectivity. We'll set you up to access your home office computer from your laptop while you're on the road, or access your office computer at home.
If you need wall jacks or wiring... we recommend an electrician :)
We offer competitively priced computer upgrades, repair and service. Need more memory (don't we all?) or would you like to add a component? We perform hardware upgrades, and software installations.
We troubleshoot common computer errors. Blue Screens of Death, printers that don't print, or the worst "my computer just runs slow".
Worried about a virus or spyware? We can help clean your computers and rid them of potentially malicious programs. Better yet, we'll train you on what to look for to avoid and even fix these in the future without having to hire us or anyone else!
We generally work with PHP/MySQL, and we can do basic web design and programming. If you're looking to make the next Amazon.com, we'll have to pass. However, we have set up web sites from the ground up so we are very familiar with hosting, DNS, and database management.
We also know a pretty artistic and edgy design guy if you need logos and artwork.
I'm currently teaching a class in Huntington Beach on "How to Fix Your Own Computer". I enjoy showing people what I know and teaching them how to be smarter computer users. If you need computer training, you'll find I'm friendly, patient, and I can explain things in plain easy-to-understand English. No super techy computer speak.
I'm happy knowing that I've helped someone become self sufficient with their computer. So they DON'T have to call us back the next time.
