Background & Testimonials
My background (for Apple support):
I’ve lived in Fairfield Connecticut for all but 6 years of my life. I started selling computers shortly after college. That was the beginning of 1984. When I started, part of my job as the sales person was to provide instruction and support. I found I liked the Wow factor of showing people how to use them. Shortly after starting, the industry matured to the first time people where buying their second computer. They didn’t want to spend the extra money for a service they felt they no longer needed. So discount stores started to pop up and then spread like wildfire to become the norm. Then management didn’t want me to take the time to help people. There was not enough profit left in selling the computer to afford to do that. It had become a commodity item, all the way back in 1986. That took all of the fun out of it for me. With the help of a friend I decided to go on my own and become a “consultant”. I purposely chose the Apple Macintosh because I enjoyed it so much more. If I was going to make a career at it I wanted to enjoy it. PCs, especially then - running DOS, where NO Fun at all! I have made a career out of helping people with Apple Macintosh computers.

To Whom It May Concern:
Steve Goethner has been my computer consultant for close to 20 years. When we started together, I was just learning the vocabulary and rudimentary operations of my Machintosh computer. He is an extremely patient and skilled teacher.
Since those early years, my needs have become increasingly complex, sometimes involving projects for non-profit organizations with which I’ve been involved. Steve has assisted me with everything from designing custom databases to mastering graphic design programs, advising me on system upgrades and trouble shooting the myriad of large and small problems that invariably occur.
Steve is extremely knowledgeable about and dedicated to his field. He has been consistently pleasant, effective and willing to ‘go the extra mile’ to accommodate his clients. He’s a wonderful person with a lovely sense of humor. We have become friends. I would be at a loss without his professional assistance.
Sincerely,
Christie S.
