My search for a good computer repair shop almost ended in a nightmare. Fortunately, before things totally went south, I did an online search and found ComputeRx in Niskayuna. Mike Kanciruk has been in the repair business for more than 15 years. He's racked up great reviews which convinced me to give ComputeRx a try.
Mike fixed my broken MacBook Pro in about a week. The laptop screen had cracked and I forgetfully let the warranty expire. Ugh!
Mike charged me $75 for labor to install a new replacement screen which he had to order. It wasn't cheap. The whole thing ran me close to $600. I like Mike because he was upfront about costs and what needed to be done.
Initially, I took my broken laptop to a repair shop near me where it just sat untouched for more than two weeks. The repair cost they finally quoted was between $100-$200 more than what ComputeRx actually charged, plus they wanted the money upfront. I had a bad feeling about that so I took my laptop back and brought it to ComputeRx instead. So glad I did.
ComputeRx at 2215 Nott St. It shares an office with Nott Street Office, a shipping and copy business. They're few doors down from Lange's Pharmacy.
