Laptop Owners Discover A Lifesaver - A New York-Based Company Called LaptopMD Brings A New Twist To Laptop Repair

New York, NY (PRWEB) May 14, 2008

To fix, or not to fix? That's the question many laptop owners ask when their precious commodity takes a turn for the worse. Like any computer, laptops do get "sick" due to motherboard errors, viruses, and the like. Repair technicians often want to take shortcuts that will cost the consumer much more than it's worth. But a New York-based company called LaptopMD takes a fresh approach to laptop repair, allowing most clients to keep their

favorite laptop at minimal cost.

Like many across the nation, New Yorkers depend on their laptops for everyday business tasks. A week, or two weeks in many cases, without their laptop can cost them much time and profits. Another problem they face is choosing between fixing their laptop and buying a new one.

While in some cases, buying a new one is inevitable, many laptops can be fixed. The problem is some repair personnel don't want to take the time or don't have the know-how to fix the problem.

A breath of fresh air for New York laptop owners, LaptopMD provides free estimates while the customer waits, and guarantees repairs in 24 to 48 hours. But these aren't the only services that make this repair company so unique. The highly-trained technicians at LaptopMD actually

repair the laptops instead of simply replacing parts. If the motherboard is damaged or has errors, they fix it. If the problem lies in the screen or LCD panel, they fix these as well.

The owner of LaptopMD, Arthur Zilberman, discovered that many clients will opt to fix their existing laptop even if it would be cheaper to buy a brand new one. Why? They become attached to their laptop and don't want to go through the hassle of learning how to use a new one. All their precious files, programs, and customer or product databases are stored on their laptop, and changing over to a new one usually requires reinstalling programs and transferring much information.

"Those who use their laptop for business on a daily basis become accustomed to one particular laptop and its operating functions. They are too busy to switch gears and learn something entirely new. In most cases, we make it possible to keep their laptop at affordable rates, and many clients are very happy when they find out they can keep their favorite laptop," states Zilberman.

LaptopMD also brings service to the customer's home or business. The company sends engineers to all New York boroughs: Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens, Long Island, and Staten Island. The company services laptops seven days a week, and never charges for an estimate. The company even

guarantees that it will buy any laptop that can't be fixed!

As one customer named Alex K. from the New York Museums of Natural History states, "LaptopMD was able to fix my broken Mac, even after Tekserve said that they couldn't do it and that I would have to pay approximately $ 700 to have Mac fix it. LaptopMD took care of the problems for under $ 200. I was impressed and highly recommend his services!"

The company recently won the Best of City Search Prestige Award with 50% of clients discovering its services through City Search on the Web.

LaptopMD portrays the old adage of "roll up your sleeves and work hard" to give laptop owners what they want and deserve. Besides laptop repair, the company also services iPods, cell phones, PDA, PSP, and other electronic gadgets.

About LaptopMD:

LaptopMD is a part of Global PC Consultants, a company that was founded by a group of Computer Science students at the New York Institute of Technology (NYIT). The students were approached during the post-September 11 recession to help small Long Island businesses advance and increase profits through technology.

The company's president, Arthur Zilberman, graduated from NYIT with an associate degree in Electrical Engineering and a bachelors degree in Computer Science. NYIT is one of the best private schools in the world, with 20 affiliate schools worldwide. Zilberman also worked as an independent consultant helping Fortune 500 companies for more than 10 years, including companies such as Chase, JP Morgan, HP, Compaq, and IBM.
