hello world...

I am feebly attempting to market my business by running some inexpensive facebook ads. Could you please let me know if you see my ad with the pencil tip pic with evil screws asking why is it so expensive to replace my MacBook screen. you can comment saw it in this post...

my goal is to get more followers and/or like my page so when I do post it hits the immediate area which for me is defined as 10 miles around 17011.

thank you

being self employed has its ups and downs

today I set up a 1900.00 Apple Studio display, while that price tag is a real jimmy kicker this monitor is best monitor I have seen in my career. The image quality is disturbingly good. Matching, is the superb audio quality. I wish everyone could experience this, well, experience.

Maybe one day I will own such a monitor, maybe not, I am thankful to at least have the time with this monitor albeit way too brief.

the iPhone pic does not do this monitor justice...

I have setup 8?10? Mac minis. I’m very impressed at performance. This next week I get to set up a m4 mini with 27 inch Apple display for a lucky customer. I’m beginning to think I’m more excited than the client!
