Great experience. Needed a bulging laptop battery replaced. John also cleaned up all the nonsense on the machine. Very quick service at a reasonable price. Highly recommended.

These techs are outstanding! My computer was taking forever to load programs and the internet. They diagnosed a sub-par hard drive and replaced it with a new solid-state drive onto which they'd copied all my data and programs, all within the same day!

I have gone to Northbay Computers on three separate occasions. Each time, they quickly diagnosed the problem (failed hard drive twice, and failed video card once). They had all the parts to get me back up and running, and when the disks gave out they salvaged and transferred the data. Don't hesitate to go here with your computer issues.

John and the group at NBCS are great. John went the extra mile to keep our business up and running after our IT guy tragically died. It was an awful way to need a new IT introduction but a great decision for the long run. Thanks John
