About Us

******
What I do:
Teach you in your home to use your computer in your own way. I also provide free e-mail support and follow-up. 



Remote support! If you are far away this summer and need help I can connect with you on Yahoo chat and then log into your computer if necessary to see what you're doing!

What it costs: I charge $45 to $60 per hour for home visits ..less for classroom and more for business training.
You keep a list of questions, problems and tasks.  We cover that together plus offer suggestions for more enjoyment of your system.  These rates can be shared by more than one.

Other services:  
Shop or help shop new equipment, consult & handle upgrades, provide services i.e. I sometimes do the tasks so you don't have to.

Little Laptops:
My choice!

1,464.75 - $1,899.00/12.1"
IBM Thinkpad X61s

Notebooks Prices!
As of March 2008 I think the best laptops cost around
$800-$900.  But the normal user can get a great deal for $750 or less.

  Lower than
$600 will normally mean you are getting inferior something!!

How I shop for computers:
1. Chip type : Power!
2. Memory: 2Gig Minimum
3. Size
4. Generally I do not pay attention to brand too much and the newer brands are competing well in all ways so far.

I know I pay more for small.
And if I buy the cheapest machine I will get "invisible" low end parts such as a wireless adapter that has maximum snail speed, or a video card that can't run the latest video technology without hesitation. So once I get the chip right: core 2 duo or quad equivalents, then I watch the sales and markdowns to try to get something for nothing.  I consider that fun!

The Mac Air got you drooling?  Me too!
Weighs about 3 lbs with a 13.3 screen. And as thin as you could dream of being.But even Apple lovers say the price is too high ($1,800 or $3,000+) and if you must have it, wait until the next model comes out.  See my June 1st  shopping notes

Identity theft .. if you never use your credit card online, are you safe?  No!  The Internet is only one of 9 different ways someone can spend money pretending to be you.  In fact, just USING your credit card puts you at risk.
