In June, I ordered a new computer online from a major retailer (who shall remain nameless.) It…read morearrived on Friday the 13th - with a virus that wiped out Windows. Solutions suggested by online techs from the major retailer (who shall remain nameless) sent the virus to my working computer and wiped out my current Windows account. Said retailer, (who shall remain nameless,) then refused to take the computer back. Days later, a Norton tech (one of many companies I worked with online) was able to restore my original Windows account, but with presets lost. I limped along on my project. Then my keyboard failed. I had only the virtual onscreen keyboard. Techs blamed hardware and signed off. We're up to Friday, July 3rd, eve of the 250th celebrations. I knew it was time for an onsite rescue, and a friend recommended PC Mike. I left a desperate phone message, hoping to hear from him after the weekend to make an appointment for a visit the following week. To my surprise, PC Mike called me back a couple of hours later, listened to my woes and said, "Maybe I can solve it from here. Let me sign in and have a look." He was calling from his holiday vacation getaway! It took him less than ten minutes to solve the keyboard problem, and another half hour, less, to solve the problems the techs from the four major companies involved had spent hours on and failed - I had a wonderful Fourth of July weekend! After the holiday, he performed even more amazing feats settling me in properly to this new computer and I can tell you, the mouse-pointer moving around on the screen while he works is like watching a magic act, with incredible results. He not only knows the secrets of menus and internal workings perfectly, but he is also a speed-reader and wastes not a moment of your time. A true Wizard of the Machine! Call him "Magic Mike" and call him when you're in trouble! 781-923-0777. Ramona Wheeler

He is so unbelievably knowledgeable about computer repair and I find him so helpful in solving all my computer problems. My computer has been hacked a couple of times and Mike was able to not only fix the problem but uninstall the bug that the hackers had put onto the computer in order to be able to come back another day and hack it again. I am 100% happy with the serves of South Shore PC Repair ELizabeth A Pircio, CPA

James is a very personable young man and easy to work with, he fixed my old stereo receiver that…read morehad a weak channel, it now sounds great. It was done at a very fair price and in a timely manner. If this review was just about that only, I would have given 5 stars. I'm old school, you find a place to fix what's broken, you drop the item off, you get a call when done, you pick it up and pay. Techie Town might use some business software to manage the business, to get my repair done, I received 32 emails from Techie Town and about 9 text messages, also 13 emails from yelp. That just seems excessive to me.

It was very dead except for a resilient fan motor whirring hopelessly. So I bought it into EliteX with my new external hard drive and asked if they could please save my files. It took them about 2 days to do it, but they were able to salvage everything! To top it off, they also bought my 6 year old dead MacBook to use for parts and gave me a further discount from their already fair prices. EliteX are honest, well priced, and knowledgeable! I can't think of any reason to pay twice as much for "genius" service at the Apple Store. Plus Apple support told me my MacBook was antique so would cost extra to repair, if they could even do it - compared to EliteX who paid me for it!! Don't waste your money, support a local business instead!

Including the parts the total repair would cost me around 250 bucks which I don't want to spend at all.

Am blessed, I got $100 for it. Thanks Toni. Am completely satisfied with the overall service.
