What we do
Computer Repair
If it is slow, not working, or you’re just not sure, we will diagnose and repair the problem, or tell you if it isn’t worth the expense.
Phone and Tablets
From broken screens to batteries to anything else, we can repair or replace the parts or tell you if it is better to get a new one.
Websites and Apps
With a wide range of programming experience, responsive design is just a phone call away.
Networks
Whether Wired or WiFi, we can install, rework, or repair your system so that it works the way you need.
About US
After all, the tech should work for you when you want it and the best it can, not the other way around.
What you need is someone to fix it when it is down, speed it up when it is slow, and keep it doing what it is supposed to do. That is where we fit into the picture.
We can teach you how to use it, if you don't know how; train you to use it better, if you already know the basics; fix what is broken, when it needs it; help you select a new or better option, when you need; keep it working at its best for as long as it can; and dispose of it properly, when it has to be.
All this when and where YOU are, if you wish. No need to wait for an open office to find and drop it off. We come to you, and all for a lot less cost than you'd expect.

Why I use an iPhone
Quite often I get the question/ statement directed at me that that goes something like… My smartphone journey began near the end of 2004 when my beloved Samsung flip-phone vibrated in my hands as I was about to make a call, jumped into the air, took a nosedive from 2 stories up, hit a metal[…]
Something cool from the web
Today’s post is a bit different… I found a nice little website that let’s you listen to music from around the world by decade. radiooooo.com… That is “radio” with 5 lmn’0’s… You pick the country and the decade, anywhere from the 1900s to today, and it serves a selection of the top music played[…]
Are you killing your battery?
We have all seen that, right?… Of course we have. Fact is that the warning has nothing to do with the lithium-ion batteries of modern phones and laptops and more to do with manufacturers simply not changing their text-based materials. Modern lithium-ion batteries DO NOT need to be fully charged once they are in a[…]
How Broken is TOO Broken? or What is inside an iPad?
You see them everywhere, Broken Screens… Whether on a phone or tablet, music player or laptop, the broken screen has nearly become a rite of passage; if you’ve never broken one, you aren’t really using your device to its fullest (or you are just extremely careful). The issue comes when people don’t understand that nearly[…]
You are Multitasking WRONG!
Multitasking is the apparent ability to conduct more than one task or activity simultaneously. Often called Human Multitasking, it derives from the concept of Computer Multitasking. The original single core computer chips actually performed this activity much like we do, not really performing two tasks simultaneously, but time-sharing, meaning that one task was performed[…]
Someone is stealing from you
Okay… so maybe that headline comes across as click-bait… But it is probably happening, particularly if you live in a city. This brief post comes from one of this week’s repairs, which turned into more a case of technology dos and don’ts training. Most wifi routers that you pick up off the shelf at[…]

Your P@55w0rd Still 5ucks… and why
you’ve read my explanation of how to make a more secure password, Your Password Sucks (A Public Service Announcement)((http://techneeded.com/2015/05/30/passwordsucks/, Daniel Northcutt, 2015)), you might be taking the time to think a bit more about the passwords you use, and making them a bit better. The method I discussed uses simple changes to what you already[…]
The Privacy Lie (that you are telling yourself)
By now, I’m sure that you KNOW that you are being tracked online in some way. I’m sure that you understand deep down that that there are these shadowy figures that know things about you and what you look at online and what you buy. I’m equally sure that you don’t know the full picture, or how[…]
