Thanx for the endorsement, Cranky!

While I've got a computer workshop here in Elmira (think Computer
Recycling Lite) it's not a commercial or retail repair shop.

I do provide on-site computer tech support to individuals and business,
such as upgrades, software installation, virus removal, network
installation and setup.  I'll do hardware repairs onsite as well,
sourcing parts from the usual local retailers.

And I provide System Administration for larger businesses -- e-mail
servers, Web sites, network cabling, &c.

--Bob, who appreciates the opportunity for blatant self-promotion.
