For $100, I come to your home or
place of business and diagnose, explain and recommend repair. (plus
$20/hour for driving time to and from locations outside the
Boulder/Broomfield/Longmont area)
If it's a hardware problem, I usually recommend one of
the local repair shops.
If it's a software problem I can usually give you an
estimate on how much time it would take to repair, depending on the
problem. If there are several options, I will present you with the
alternatives, as well as costs and advantages or disadvantages of
each.
I also explain at a level you can understand,
what is going on with your PC. In many cases, the problem is actually
caused by something you or a member of your household is doing. I will
also tell you how to avoid or fix the problem yourself in the future, if
possible.
I consider educating PC users a very crucial part
of avoiding future problems. In many cases, PC users have had no training
and are ignorant of the consequences of their actions. Most people just
don't have the time to learn all the fine details of computer usage. In a
very short time (30 to 60 minutes) i can teach you the basics of what you
need to know, in terms you can understand.
