We Recommend ... This area is currently under construction. PRODUCTS, SERVICES & COMPANIES WE LIKE This section contains information on products, services and businesses we choose recommend. The first two listing below include information on our other businesses. As a general rule, many of the recommendations noted here are based on our direct experience. Others are included because we know one or more individuals involved in the enterprise and feel comfortable adding them to this list. Fewer still are added just because... Many of the listings have nothing whatsoever to do with computers. However, we all have lives beyond our jobs and/or the companies we run that afford us a wide range of experiences and/or expertise in other areas of life that are often worth sharing. The headers should make scanning through the listings somewhat easier... We hope you find this information useful. -------------------------------------------- SUDDEN SERVICE PROFESSIONAL ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT REPAIR Sudden Service is a general electronic repair company that has been in operation since 1992.

In all the years we have dealt with them, we have only encountered one instance where they were unable to recover the data off of a hard drive, and that was only because the customer ran the drive for over six months despite knowing it was damaged. Of course, this level of data retrieval should NEVER take the place of maintaining your own backups, but disasters do happen; and when they do this is the place to turn to. THE CODE ABOVE WILL GET YOU FREE DIAGNOSTICS AND A DISCOUNT ON THIS COMPANY'S SERVICES. Rest assured you can use them with confidence when the necessity arises. -------------------------------------------- SOFTWARE RECOMMENDATIONS MacScan www.SecureMac.com This is the leader in anti-sypware protection for the Mac. This utility is available for purchase from retailers like the MacClinic or via internet download directly from their website. With identity and data theft at an all-time high this is one way to help maintain your security and privacy. This company offers a free trial download but you really want all the features this app has to offer. Besides, at just $30, the price tag for this utility is extremely low compared to the cost of repairing the damage caused by a serious security breach. SuperDuper! www.shirt-pocket.com Here's another inexpensive, yet outstanding, utility. This program does one thing and one thing only -- it makes a bootable system backup. A free demo can be downloaded from their website, but trust me you are going to want to fork out the $27.95 for a registered version of this app so you can make ''smart'' automatic backups. I have set up automated backup systems utilizing this program for 70 year old grandmothers and Vegas casinos; so trust me when I tell you that this is a GREAT application. Now I know I said this software only does one thing, but keep in mind that a drive is a drive is a drive, so it is possible to use this program to clone a variety of devices, not just your startup disk. -------------------------------------------- ALTERNATIVE HEALING WILLIAM LINVILLE & UNIVERSALIS, INC.
