Computers are like light bulbs.  Eventually it is going to die.  Replacing the computer is the easy part, it is all the data (photos, business information, and documents) that can take days or weeks to reproduce and may be irreplaceable.

Far too often someone brings in a dead computer and the first thing we ask for is the backup.  And far too often people and businesses have no backup at all, or it is outdated and backing up old information.

Rather than have the pain of losing important information, have the pleasure of having one our friendly geeks come out and setup a backup for you.  The software we use emails an update every week to let you know if there are any issues and sends out critical emails when backups are failing.  We can even monitor your backups for you and put you on our Friendly Reminder Program.

For more information please call 250-338-4411.

If you are lucky like me you got a cool pop up this morning telling you about the Windows 10 release. We are excited about the release of Windows 10 that will happen on July 29, 2015. But beware, we are geeks that have fun messing up our computers with new operating systems, but most people will find it a bit disorienting and possibly frustrating if their operating system suddenly changed.  And that's only if it works properly.  Operating system updates are major changes and we highly recommend making sure you have a very good backup prior to updating.  It is not always as easy as 1, 2, 3  :-)
