With my help, your computer system becomes your best friend and partner . . . instead of your enemy.
 
I've worked in the technical trenches of the electronics manufacturing, radio communications, and data processing fields for over thirty years. I've built and maintained communication systems in Africa; I've repaired them when no spare parts were available; I've built and managed growing computer networks for major electronic instrument manufacturers. In fourteen years we had no unscheduled downtime. The buck stops at my desk. I bring this "boots on the ground" experience to your computer system.

Customer testimonials

To my fellow computer lovers. I would like to express my profound thanks to Russ Bellew for sorting out a number of problems that I had on my two home computers. Not only did he get them up and running quickly, he also explained the various problems and remedies in a language that I could understand. It was very apparent that I was dealing with a dedicated and extremely knowledgeable professional. I can highly recommend his services and especially to those who have the love of their computer at heart.

Russ has been keeping our computer system functioning properly and updated for 15 years. There isn't anyone better to repair or update your system. I consider myself fairly advanced in computer knowledge, for a non-computer career professional, and my computer knowledge isn't even a drop in the bucket compared to Russ'. He not only knows how systems work but also knows the history of computers (who made breakthroughs, when and why). I feel my computer network that Russ built and maintains is one of my greatest assets over my competition. Another one of Russ' great talents is knowing where to get a good deal. (A new or more expensive system is not always better.) Thanks for the great service, Russ.

Wow. I thought that I was going to junk out my laptop and start over with a new computer. I'm not a computer savvy individual, yet like almost everyone today I have the need to communicate and utilize the assistance they provide on a daily basis. RUSS BELLEW through patience and knowledge solved the problem. Mind you, not with the snap of a finger and not overnight, yet with sincere dedication.
