Thank you so much to Alpine Computers for saving all of my photos after my computer died. Not only is all my data restored, but laptop is working better than before it broke!

Alpine is terrific -- fast, friendly service. They did exactly what they said they would and for a low cost (free for my last screen protector replacement!). I wish there was anyone half as good where I live!

Alpine Computers has amazing customer service! I had brought in a Playstation that couldn't be repaired, but Alpine removed the hard drive for me with no charge as the unit couldn't be repaired. So amazing to have a business not take advantage of their customers.

I live in Tahoe for 31 years and Alpine Computer has been the most reliable and trusted computer store and repairs in South Lake Tahoe. I highly recommend them because the company delivers with their professionalism and excellent customers service. They make sure that their customers leave satisfied with the good quality and value; and very responsive to their customer's needs! Also, they will not over charge you with their service.

I had a problem today with my Kindle while I was visiting South Lake Tahoe. I needed a charger to reset it, but there are no big box stores close by, so I found alpine computers online and the gentleman on the phone thought that he would be able to help me. I drove over and Jon was ready to help me. He took the time to look online and figure out the steps that we needed to take, and put my kindle back in business. Since I was in the middle of my vacation, this was incredibly helpful. I really appreciate the time he took, this was great customer service. Thank you to John and Alpine Computers.

We were on vacation, just passing through when one of our chargers broke while being plugged into our phone. The part was stuck in the port and we could not get it out. We took a stop into Alpine Computers and they pulled the piece out in less than a minute. Not only did they treat us so well, they also did it for free. Great customer service, friendly employees, and extremely responsive! We highly recommend!

So grateful for these guys right now. I had a failing hard drive in my Mac, took me almost two weeks to get my data off of it. After that I thought about bringing it to Apple in Reno knowing I'd get ripped off for taking the iMac apart and replacing the drive. I decided to go by the reviews for Alpine and give em a chance. so glad I did. Not only did they charge a fraction of what Apple would charge, but it took them ONE DAY. My iMac is running better than new, thanks to Chris

These guys are awesome! When we had our Mac running terribly they were able to diagnose that it was a virus that corrupted the entire computer. They were able to restore it back to pretty much what it was and remove the nasty bugger. From figuring out our issue with why the wi-fi wasnt working to recommendations on what computer to get ... theyve been an invaluable resource. Great local shop that we will ALWAYS support.

We are up in Tahoe on our annual Christmas / New Year vacation and my wife's computer crashed. We took to Alpine Computers and Dustin hooked us up!! He got her computer up and running as good as new and at an affordable price. We would recommend any with computer issue to bring it here!!! Thanks Dustin

I was on vacation across the western united states and neither Dell support nor two other computer shops were able to fix my laptop. During my stay in Tahoe, I saw Alpine Computer's sign in the middle of town and in a couple of days, they were able to diagnose and repair my problem for the reasonable price of $99. I highly recommend giving these guys a shot.

Chris recovered all my files in a very timely manner. I also came in with a long list of questions that he was able to answer with certainty. I've had nothing but great service here and all the staff has always welcomed me with smiles!
