About

With almost 40 years of experience as a technologist, I have seen it all, and have fixed it. I specialize in Apple products but can handle just about anything. I have developed a reputation for being able to fix what other techs can't. Feel free to contact me for a free consult. Variety. There's always something new to try, a new puzzle to solve, a process of continuous learning and improvement. I'm never bored. Thank you for visiting my profile. I would say that about half of the jobs I handle are over the phone, and so far the clients and I have a 100% success rate. I am in Pensacola, FL so if you're not in that general area, as much as I'd like to I can't come to your home or business. A good many issues can be resolved working together over the phone, and I've helped people from Maine to California. Hope to speak with you (or visit) soon.

If I were still running my own business and my computer crashed I would call Matt and instantly be assured that he'd have me up and running. But Matt helped me instead with a very small time job - getting my home computer up to date after my putting off doing any upgrades for six years. His patience and skill were outstanding and he went out of his way to pick up the backup hard drive I needed and bring it to my house. He's top notch and beyond his professionalism also a good person. The business world always needs these type of people.

Thanks Jim! It was a pleasure. And thank YOU and your wife for the coffee and banana bread. It really hit the spot.

Matt spent all the time necessary to fix several problems with my older Dell computer. He was very professional and kept me "in the loop" as he worked to fix the various problems, one of which was particularly ornery! He also got along great with my big yellow lab!!

Thanks John. There’s nothing I enjoy more than a having a dog like Blue attached to me while I work. He’s a terrific dog.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
It's fair and I get great discounts on parts which I pass along. Tipping is always allowed (kidding).
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I always like to get a feel for the level of comfort with technology that each customer has. I take notes about the configuration of the computer and I get a general feel for the way the customer likes to work.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I started working on computers when hard drives (and disk drives) hadn't even been invented yet, so all of my knowledge comes from my work.
