QUESTIONS
a. Can someone tell me of a computer repair store for Macs.
I am having problems and need to have someone look at it.
bresski55@yahoo.com
(One answer BPE#960: I recently used a computer shop in La
Paz to repair my wife's Mac Book. Their service was
excellent!!! and I'm a computer geek. I just found out that
they not only are an authorized Mac repair shop but they
also repair Window's computers. When you bring an item to
the shop, these guys inventory everything you bring (so
nothing is misplaced) and email you when the job is
complete. Their English is great. Their prices are very
good, considering the quality of their work - excellent.
The company infor: Kreasoft, 298 Aquiles Serdan e/Rosales
y Allende, La Paz. 612 125 8286. Web site:
