Got New Tech For Christmas? We Can Help You Set It Up!

Chief Problem Solver from Your Computer Guy

Everyone loves new tech on the holidays. But is that device ready to go out of the box? What will you do with the data on your old device? We can help you set it up - the right way!

New computers typically include a lot of junkware and apps that you are never going to use. The most common ones are trial versions of antivirus software - typically, McAfee, Norton, or TrendMicro. It will work for 30 days and then leave you unprotected asking you to pay $80+ for "comprehensive" protection that slows down your computer.

We'll remove any junkware and apps that will slow your computer down, get all the necessary updates and patches, install any software you would like AND ensure that you have the proper anti-virus software installed (yes, even if it's a Mac).

We'll also transfer all your data over from your old machine so it's safe and secure, and help you set up a back-up system you don't have to think about.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
