"Clean Sweep" Services:

If your system is plagued by a number of problems, or you experience a catastrophic hardware or software failure, we usually recommend a full "Clean Sweep" of your system. This involves completely erasing and reformatting your hard drive, reinstalling every software application you own, and reconfiguring your system back to the way you like it.

To maintain maximum performance and reliability, however, Apple also recommends that you perform a similar "maintenance" Clean Sweep of your system after every 2,000 hours of use (roughly once each year). Plus, it's usually a good idea to "Clean Sweep" your system before installing any significant hardware or software upgrades.

Depending on the complexity of your system, a Clean Sweep might require as few as three hours, or more than eight hours to complete. But, as a special "preferred customer" bonus, clients who sign Maintenance Agreements receive a 20% discount off the normal rates for their annual Clean Sweep, and any other services we perform during the year.

Together, these maintenance services and special discounts allow our customers to enjoy fast, reliable and productive systems, at savings of more than 30% off our normal hourly rates. For more information, or to sign up for a 5-Minute Mac Maintenance Agreement, call us today at 724-535-0990.

 

NEW - CD Backup / Archive Service:

All magnetic storage media will fail - eventually. It may happen years from now, or it may happen tomorrow. If your essential backup files and archives are currently stored on hundreds of old floppy disks, digital tape or even removable ZIP and Syquest cartridges, they are at constant risk from magnetic media failures and may not be usable or recoverable when you need them.

To protect your essential backup files, reduce disk clutter and increase productivity, ask us about consolidating your existing archives on reliable, permanent, high-capacity CD-ROM disks. It's a fast and affordable service we provide for all of our customers. Click here for complete details about our CD-ROM Archiving Service.

For one low, affordable price we can make your family Mac run faster and more reliably than when it was new, install hardware upgrades and software updates, and provide all the advice you need to plan future purchases wisely and use your Mac more productively.
