From George Mason students stretching a laptop through one more year to offices along Fairfax Boulevard with a row of aging desktops, we help Fairfax get more out of the computers it already owns. We come to you and do the work on-site.
For small offices, we can upgrade several computers in one visit and schedule around your busiest hours.
“Daryl is a phenomenal resource. He is competent and professional, but very personable. He has never shamed me for my occasional (OK, frequent) ignorant questions about my software nightmares. He just patiently explains the concept and informs me of my options. He then works with blazing speed and before I know it, I am back in business. You will not be sorry if you use his services.”

Daryl replaced the hard drive on my wife’s laptop, and the entire process, including scheduling, was fast, efficient, and at a very fair price. His communication was timely and clear, and the repair was done right. Highly recommended!Read full review

Questions from Fairfax neighbors
Can you upgrade several office computers at once?
Yes. We can upgrade a whole office in one visit, staggered so people can keep working, and make sure shared printers and drives still connect afterward.
What about Windows 11?
We can check whether your computer can run Windows 11, upgrade it if it can, and help you weigh your options if it can’t.
Will I lose my files or programs?
No. We copy your whole system onto the new drive, so your files, programs, and settings are exactly where you left them.
