Been a while

Well it's been over a month since our last post, as we have been very busy, but have still managed to find time to post on twitter. Well lots been going on.

Laptop Repairs
We have been doing lots of laptop repairs including screen replacements, and replacement DC Jacks. We have also been told by our screen supplier that the prices will be rising, and they are already on the way up, an 8.9" screen we did recently had increased by over £15!

Data Recoveries
Also doing a lot of data recoveries, both physical, and logical. It is always better to have a copy of your data, than relying on it being recoverable. It might just no be recoverable.

Business Support Contracts
This has been growing rapidly, with a whole lot of new business support customers.

Coming Soon
Microsoft will be launching Windows 7 on us next week (22/10/09) We have been running it on some of our desktops for a month for so now. It was a little bit difficult to begin with, as we had issues with some of the drivers, but the platform has been stable for about 3 weeks now.

Failurers

It's been a little over 2 weeks since we last posted a blog, but we have been busy.

Having now pretty much caught up and entering our quieter period, now we have time to blog about various things.

Firstly we now have our reduced prices on our Hosted Backup. If you have 1GB of data on a laptop/desktop you are now looking at it costing just £3.40 + VAT per month. As you can see this is now what I will concentrate on for the next 3-4 weeks. And we have a whole host of new products and services to add, and hopefully an updated website, along with a new shop!

Just recently, in the last couple of weeks we have had an increase in people wanting new life breathed into old slow computers. Amazing how many registry faults can be found. We do, a yearly health check at £40, on top of just getting you machine cleaned from a software point of view we also carry out a full hardware clean, all in a single day, with pick up and drop off included in the price.

Well that is about all for today.

A Busy Month

April was a busy month. We were busy with all sorts of issues.
we have been replacing laptop screens at the rate of about 2 a week, and it is amazing what hits these to cause them to break! Our recommendation is if you aren't using your laptop close the lid, and place the laptop out of the reach of Children and animals. This should help you save around £100. Yes it is repairable, and the price comes in around £100 depending on Screen size.

A network install, which still isn't complete. BT are such a pain it is about time that BT Realise how important a Broadband connection is to business. It is no longer a nice to have, in business it is essential.

A high number of Hard Drive failurers, a stunning amount of drive failurers. Whilst these will happen make sure you have your data backed up, being able to restore your data makes the whole process so much less painful.
