My Expert Service

I am a professional Apple Macintosh Computer Genius with over 17 years experience in the business. I have supported & worked on all aspects of Macintosh from my very first an Apple Macintosh Plus upgrading it from 1 MB to 4 MB, connected an external CMS 25-pin SCSI Hard Drive & installed OS v7.0.1 to my most current a Power Macintosh G4 (Gigabit Ethernet) in which I upraded the AGP video card to an ATI Radeon® 8500 Mac Edition, added an additional PATA IBM HD, two Ultra 160 HDs via an Adaptec PowerDomain 29160N SCSI card, additional memory to 1.12 GB and recently upgraded to Apple's "Tiger" OS v1.0.4.7. With all of this experience I am the person to choose when it comes to any Apple Macintosh computer assistance needed.
