Windows 11 and its Ridiculous Requirements!

(summary - Windows 11 -> good, hardware requirements -> ridiculous, but I can install it on any computer whether or not it meets official qualifications)

As you may be aware, Windows 11 is in official release now. I've installed it on all 4 of my computers as well as those of several of my clients, and have been very happy with the user experience and performance.

However, you may have also noticed the very stringent and arbitrary system requirements, which have raised a lot of controversy among Windows users, The requirements are not based on performance, so it seems like a blatant effort to get you to buy new computers.

The good news is that I can install this new version of Windows on ANY computer. And so far, I have seen measurable performance improvements on every computer I've installed it on.

If you're ready for the upgrade, but your hardware isn't qualified, give me a call or text and we'll get it done. $60 flat rate. Done in less than 1 day. (2-3 hr) 😁👍🏻

I can breathe NEW LIFE into your older PC or Mac. The single most effective (and cost-effective) upgrade I do for my clients right now, is an SSD upgrade. For only $110, I'll replace your older, slower, mechanical HDD (hard disk drive) with a new 500GB Solid State Drive. This includes the SSD, mounting hardware (if necessary), saving all your personal data, and cloning your old drive to the new SSD, so that your operating system and all of your programs and data files are exactly where you left them - no need to reinstall Windows (or Mac OS) or any of your programs/apps - no need to transfer your data. And your upgraded computer/laptop will be running faster than you've EVER seen it go! The performance improvement is nothing short of amazing! I've seen it take a barely usable machine and turn it into a great performer. Call me, text me, email me, or message me on Facebook.

I'll do this for you with a 1 day turnaround. It's only $110 to you, including everything! And if that's not enough reason to do it, here are some more..

1. Faster? Yes. It's faster - WAY FASTER!

2. It's quieter - no moving parts.

3. It uses less energy than a conventional hard drive -
* Smaller electric bill,
* Smaller carbon footprint,
* Longer battery life (for your laptop)

4. It creates less heat than an HDD - overheating is a common issue with older machines and it can cause your CPU to throttle (process at a slower speed) - to say nothing of BURNING YOUR CROTCH IN BED!

* Cooler laptop - Good!
* Burning your crotch in bed - Bad!

-- SIDE NOTE FOR MEN (and I think I may have buried the lead here): raising the temperature of your testicles too much can reduce testosterone production and s***m count. True story! Google it!

5. More rugged - drop your laptop while the hard disk is spinning and it could cause the heads to crash into the disks, which could mean TOTAL system failure! 😲 With an SSD? No moving parts, no mechanical failure 😁

6. More reliable - did I mention an SSD has no moving parts?

So what should be your takeaway from this?
. For the low low price of $110, I can:
* speed up your computer,
* help reduce your carbon footprint,
* keep you from losing all your data,
* and - most importantly - protect you from burning your crotch in bed!

Call me! -- (seven one four) 305-6344.
Let's get it done!

Cloning a new client's hard drive on to a new SSD...

If you don't know how much a Solid State Drive can do to improve the performance of your laptop or desktop computer (PC or Mac), then let me be the first to tell you! An SSD can breath new life in to an older machine that might otherwise be ready for the scrap heap. Your computer will boot about 10 times faster, programs load much more quickly, and it's simply the most cost-effective upgrade you can do to almost any system.

I'm doing these right now, for $120. That includes a 500GB SSD, any necessary cables, my labor, and cloning of your old Hard Disk Drive to the new SSD, so that everything is right where you expect it to be... just running a whole lot faster!

Get a hold of me through Facebook, email me at [email protected] or call or text me on my phone, to arrange a time for me to do this upgrade for you. It's just $120, all inclusive, and I can turn it around in *one day* so you'll be back up and running in no time.
