NEW PRICING CONCEPT!

Let's haggle! Some peoples' budgets are tighter than others, particularly in this economy. Additionally, the same service is worth different amounts to different people for different reasons.

So here's the deal: let's make a deal! Choose the service, make an offer, or I'll pitch an offer to you and we'll see where it goes.

 

24/7 Support Available!

On-site or

repair-and-return

service!

 

Computer problems?

Network problems?

Did your computer lose its mind, or worse, acquire a mind of its own?

Do you need immediate help, but its the middle of the night, or Geek Squad can't get to you soon enough?

Do you just need to tweak to speed your system up? Perhaps you're considering an upgrade to a new machine or operating system and just need some questions answered. Would you like to build your own netbook for free from an old existing laptop?

Are you a little worried about how easy it is to be tracked through your web browser? (If not, you should be - Click here for a snapshot of how much information you're spilling to the world as you surf.)

If you go through Geek Squad, you will pay through the nose for the service, be restricted to their hours, and pay additional costs for proprietary software and operating systems.

Let me address your computer problems with economy in mind, but with more real-world knowledge than the typical big-box stores' repair guys. In addition, I am flexible in both time and travel, based on your needs.

We are based in Monticello, Illinois, and service the entire East Central Illinois region.

Other local hacks may offer similar services, but only I can give you the most competitive prices (per job, not hour), on site or repair-and-return service, 24-hour on-call services, and many years of computer and network experience.

Disk scrubbing/cleaning/purging: if it's good enough for NSA and DoD, and its good enough for UIUC, it might just be a good idea for you. Don't become another victim of identity theft: let me ensure that your old hardware is securely cleared.

Just how secure is your transaction data? Think you're safe? Think again.

"If you haven't done anything wrong, then you have nothing to fear." Then, when the police have the warrant without real justification, just for fun, they take a "narrow" look for a particular set of data in your digital media. Unfortunately, there's no such thing as "narrow scope" when it comes to a hard drive - the boys in blue have free reign over your entire digital life.

How much and what kind of information was on the computers about OTHER patients and employees when the cops executed a search warrant against Michael Jackson's doctor? (Refer back to the "free reign" link, above)

There's ways around government bans on networking and communication. Being a servicemember doesn't mean you give up your right to freedom of speech, freedom of assembly (online), and freedom from the scrutinizing eyes of Uncle Sam (aka, Big Brother).

Do you really think Microsoft, the largest government IT contractor in the world, gives a darn about your privacy?

Is the government tracking you through fillings in your teeth? LARD thinks so! (Yes, the last one is a joke...I hope!)
