Apple Services

Having worked on Apple Mac computers for over 25 years I have a lot of experience in the general day to day running and setup as well as higher-end diagnostics and monitoring. I began using Apple computers using a Macintosh IIcx and even at this early stage I realised that the interface, usability and reliability far exceeded anything I had used before. It wasn’t a powerful computer by todays standards (a modern smart phone would be more than 10 time more powerful…!) but did exactly what it was supposed to do efficiently and dependably. Unfortunately at the time Apple Computers where extremely rare and very expensive to purchase and get serviced. In the end if you had a problem you ended up trying to sort it out yourself! This suited me in the position I held in the office and over time I became the network administrator of a small network of about 15 Macs, an XServe and many printers and peripherals. I now manage the same office (but with much more powerful computers…!) and various other networks of Apple computers on a contract basis. I have used and become proficient in many software packages also – form basic word processing to advanced server administration and computer aided design software. With advances in broadband connectivity I now also have the ability to remotely monitor and diagnose machines.
