All went well. Quick response, quick fix. Flat fee charge was as stated Laptop is again running as fast as ever.
Description of Work: Marilyn responded to my late night e- mail request for assistance with my laptop. It was taking an extraordinary and unacceptable long period of time to respond to any request made such as opening a web page or a document. Although my laptop hard drive contains a large amount of data and it does not have the fastest processor she was able to return my unit to a more than acceptable use. Without the necessity to fit a home visit into my schedule - Marilyn used my electronic authorization to remotely access my laptop where she then proceeded to analyze the cause of the problem and then ran clean-up programs... while I went spent the evening going out to dinner and completing errands.

Service was quick and my computer has worked as it should since its return. Charges were less than other estimates I had received. The company is privately owned by one individual which may explain the great personal service which was received. I left a message from their website - was contacted later that day when I was called and after discussing work to be performed and receiving an estimate with a price ceiling for requested work, arrangements were made for service.
Description of Work: Reformatted a (new to me) second hand computer then installed or reinstalled all needed and/or requested software including updates. Software included virus and spam protections which were automatically set to run. Service also included installing and setting up my e-mail service. A wireless USB device was recommended be used instead of paying "wizard of os" to purchase and install a wireless card as I am unable to have that area of house hard wired without great difficulty which would have been a more expensive option. My computer was picked up and dropped off at my home. The company has also performed remote software repair on my computer earlier in the year - my earlier computer problem was fixed while it sat on my desk at home.
