We have been rescued on several occasions by Spiff in the last 8 years:
on the last occasion we could not restart our old Mac where we had all our family pictures and no back up! Spiff figured out the solution in no time and was able to resolve the problem and also give us advice on how to look after the computer and what to do if it happens again. Spiff is very reliable and acknowledgeable in his field. He is trustworthy and has the ability to think outside the box and resolve unresolvable IT disasters!

Spiff rescued me on several occasions
He advised me on which new laptop to buy when mine gave up its ghost overnight. He installed it for me and helped me purchase and operate a new webcam. Spiff is very knowledgeable, professional and personable. His rates are more than reasonable, and I would be lost without his IT skills.
