Friendly reminder that our Fairfax shop on Pickett Rd is accepting drop-offs for diagnostics.

Welcome to October!
It doesn't quite feel like fall just yet, but the cold winds are coming.

Just like in summer, be careful with changing temperatures. This time, however, the heat will likely be indoors. Remember that even though you may like to be bundled up, your computer doesn't.

It needs to stay cool to run at its best.

Added tip: try not to move your laptop around while it's on.
While it's not as bad for laptops with SSDs, try to remember to turn your computer all the way off when transporting it.

And no, closing it is not turning it off. That's just making it sleep!

Overheating is a threat that any computer can face, so do your best in keeping your computer comfortable. This means fans or liquid cooling for desktops and cooling pads for laptops.

Just a reminder that we currently are only taking walk-ins at our Fairfax location on Pickett Rd.

If you want to swing by, there's no appointment needed. Most computers are eligible for our free diagnostic, as well.
