"Had great service from Mike at GNU for our home desktop that was on a “Go Slow”!!!"
Rob n Bev Wallace.
★★★★★
Our home computer was running slow and Michael was highly recommended to investigate and propose a
solution. Even though we are located in north Auckland, Michael was able to connect remotely and
diagnose our problem. His analysis showed that our hard drive had accumulated 32 million errors over the
last three years, every time it tried to load or save material. No wonder our desktop was running so slow.
Michael ordered a replacement hard drive, couriered to our home and talked me through the $80 500gig
replacement. It’s back to running perfectly again. So appreciate your help and guidance Michael. We
highly recommend you. Rob n Bev Wallace.
