Happy Halloween!
Boo!
OK, I know I didn’t scare you. But you know what scares me? When your computer breaks and MACximize discovers that your backup was not working properly when we come in to restore your files. Doesn’t that give you the chills? (You are backing up, aren’t you?)
Or when Security Updates are released by Apple and other 3rd party companies, but you haven’t called us in to perform these updates on your system, and now you’re vulnerable to attacks. Yikes!
Among our usual tools, we’ve also got lots of spells & potions to keep your Mac running smoothly and efficiently. We can also check you for viruses and other malware that may be slowing down your system. Plus, with MACximize Remote, we can also service you over the Internet – very helpful when you’re traveling or just off the island of Manhattan. Please call MACximize so that we can help you – before it’s too late.
And whatever you do, if you eat too much candy, don’t forget to floss! (Oh, the horrors of cavities!) Happy Halloween ☺
Apple Making Verizon-Ready iPhone by Year End
Quoting from the Wall Street Journal, “Apple Inc. plans to begin mass producing a new iPhone by the end of 2010 that would allow Verizon Wireless to sell the smartphone early next year, said people briefed by Apple.
The new iPhone would be similar in design to the iPhone 4 currently sold by AT&T Inc. but would be based on an alternative wireless technology called CDMA used by Verizon, these people said. The phone, for which Qualcomm Inc. is providing a key chip, is expected to be released in the first quarter of next year, according to the same people.
An Apple CDMA iPhone would spell the end of the exclusive U.S. arrangement with Apple that AT&T has had since 2007, when the original iPhone debuted.”
MACximize Remote
To all of my “out of town” clients, I’d like to alert you to a service that I’ve been providing to more and more of my exclusive customers like yourself. I call it MACximize Remote.
One of the most valuable services that I provide is a routine checkup of your Mac — I ensure that you have the latest Apple and non–Apple software, clean up your unnecessary files, confirm that your backup is working (you are backing up, right?), and perform general software maintenance on your Mac. I have not seen you in a while because you are not in New York City. But wouldn’t it be great if from time to time I still perform these tasks?
Well, now I can do it remotely. All it requires is that you’re connected to a high-speed Internet connection. With a bit of setup I can remotely take over your computer — it’s like I’m sitting in the same room as you! And as you know, this service can extend the life of every Mac, and also speed up various functions of your laptop or desktop.
Interested? Just call me @ 212.330.6789 or email me: [email protected] and we can set up this service. As with all MACximize Maintenance, this service has a 2 hr. minimum and we bill your credit card at time of service.
But don’t wait; your computer misses me!
