Belvidere Computer
Services was started in 1997. By this time the personal
computer has become very popular and prices were stable
enough that people were buying them. Since Belvidere
Computer Services (BCS) is located in a small town in New
Jersey, the need for local computer services was very
much needed.
I started using and
working on computers in the late 1980's with an Apple IIc
being my first computer. It was at this time I learned basic
repairs and software programming. Moving into the early
1990's Apple discontinued it's IIc, IIe and IIGS lines of
computers. It was also during this period I switched to the
MS-DOS computer.
My interest in
computers started to get around town and the local people
were calling me for advice or help with a repair. Because so
many people began showing the interest in personal
computers, I decided to start a local business where
residents could purchase a computer and also learn how to
use a computer. I built quality systems and gave the
training needed to get started using the computer.
So, January 1997 --
Belvidere Computer Services was formed.
Moving into the new
millennium brought rapid changes to the personal computer.
They were getting faster and more powerful. As they became
more powerful they also became cheaper to buy. With several
major companies (HP, Dell, Gateway, etc) mass producing
computers, I could not longer stay competitive with prices.
I stopped building
personal computers, but stayed doing repairs and removing
spyware, adware and viruses from systems. Early in
2011, I decided to stop doing all types of repairs including
virus/adware removal.
I am trying to
focus my business on creating an affordable website and help
people learn how to use their computer. My training classes
are small and afford a one on one learning forum. You can
use one of my classroom computers or if you have a laptop,
you are welcome to bring that to class and learn on it. If
interested please click on the link for the type of class
you might be interested in taking.
Thank you for
reading and if you have any questions, please call or email
me.
