freelance computer repair …freedom from technical tyranny

Vintage Apple Macintosh Computers

I have become adept in older Macintosh repairs and upgrades. In doing this, I now employ widely available MacOS system tools that will allow your older mac computer to run current operating systems. It is legal and very effective in bringing life back to your 'orphaned' older apple laptops and desktop computers. You do not have to be affected by planned obsolescence of your valued computer hardware. I also do repairs or replacement of broken or worn out hardware: -screen replacement, -solid state drives -laptop hinges -keyboards -trackpads, -power ports -desktop power supplies -CPU upgrades or replacement -system memory (RAM) ...and many other hardware and operating system problems I also specialize in malware (viruses, trojans, etc.) removal and damage repairs.

Established in early 1980 era
As a professional in the computer hardware and software industry for many years, I have an established base of knowledge that continues to expand as I stay up to date on the latest computer hardware, security and repair issues. With this technical experience comes a solid background in what it takes to deliver excellent customer service and support. I treat my customers the way I would expect to be treated; with sincere respect and fairness. As new technology rolls out, I work hard to stay updated on fast changing hardware repair techniques.

Historic Origins of Freelancers
In what is called the medieval age: 11th to 14th centuries, wealthy kings and land lords, would hire independant or "Free" warriors who acted on their behalf in challenges and skirmishes over their wealth and land holdings. These hired horse mounted guardians carried a long bladed pole called a lance; they were known as Freelancers. I don't carry any weapons, and I am not truly free, but I am for hire to help you battle the skirmishes that everyone runs into once in a while with laptops and desktop computers. Look into the reviews of other's experience with me as I have dealt with lots of different hardware, operating system and malware threats. I am available only by appointment and work only on computers; no phones, printers or tablets. You will find many other resorces available for those non-computer devices.

Deep-scan removal of virus infestations, Trojans, scare-ware, bloat-ware and ransom-ware...

There is also a separate class of non-malware that is nonetheless harmful to the normal operation of computers; known as unwanted programs and modifications also known as PUP & PUM.

These fly under the radar of some popular anti-virus search engines and can avoid detection.

Most folks I meet do not realize the threat in blithely roaming around on the Internet, shopping, gaming or working. That threat becomes very serious when there is inadequate malware or anti-virus protection.Never has there been more potential for acquiring infection to computer operating systems; on both Mac and Windows computers. I have developed scanning routines that go far beyond what the average user does, to try and protect themselves from such intrusion. It is not always the same and sometimes can take hours or even days of scanning and searching for code and programs hiding on their computers.

BOOT-UP problems, No hard drive found and other missing drive issues...

One of the most frequent problems with personal computers is the failure of the hard drive storage device or other storage media such as solid state drives (SSD).

I advise my customers that there is no IF about the failures, it is more a matter of when and how much mileage you will get from the hard drive. SOLID STATE drives are my only replacements, & you can expect them to last longer than the old style mechanical hard drives.
