Geekoids

It is with regret that I must announce the withdrawal of Geekoids from the market. With my recent series of strokes and my current physical challenges, I cannot perform the most basic of computer repairs, so I am referring all my new and existing business to Keith Steinmetz, who some of you will remember was one of my technicians before he struck out on his own.

I am not able to predict when, or even if, my health will return, so it’s best I just close shop for now. I thank all my past and current clientele for the support you have given Geekoids, and if you have any questions, feel free to get in contact!

I hope you find this informative and entertaining!

Thank you for your understanding, getting your computers back up and running remains my top priority!
