Frequently Asked Questions

How much does new computer setup cost on Long Island?

New computer setup and data transfer on Long Island typically costs $100-$200 depending on how much data needs to transfer and how many programs need to be installed. Basic setup (data transfer + email + WiFi) starts at $100. Full setup with all software, printer, and security configuration is $150-$200. On-site service may have a small trip fee. Call (516) 407-8111.

How long does data transfer from old to new computer take?

Data transfer typically takes 2-4 hours depending on how much data you have. A computer with 100GB of files transfers in about 1-2 hours. Larger libraries (500GB+ of photos and videos) may take 3-5 hours. We can usually complete the entire setup (transfer + software + configuration) in the same day.

Can you transfer data from a PC to a Mac (or Mac to PC)?

Yes! We regularly transfer data between PCs and Macs. Files, photos, music, and documents transfer cleanly between platforms. Email accounts work on both. Some Windows-only software won't run on Mac (and vice versa), but we'll identify alternatives and help you get set up.

What if my old computer doesn't turn on?

We can often still recover your data. We remove the hard drive or SSD from your old computer and extract your files directly. If the drive itself has failed, our data recovery service can help. Don't throw away a dead computer until we've checked for recoverable data.

Do you set up computers for businesses?

Yes. We handle business computer deployments including domain joining, email configuration (Exchange, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace), business application installation, printer and network setup, and security policy configuration. We can set up one new workstation or deploy a dozen.

Can you help me choose a new computer to buy?

Absolutely. Based on what you do (office work, photo editing, gaming, etc.) and your budget, we recommend the right computer. We can save you money by steering you away from overpriced machines and toward the specs that actually matter for your use case. Call us before you buy.
