When you hire Nick’s Computer Rescue, you’re not getting a guy with a screwdriver and a maybe. You’re getting a real, careful, professional operation. Here’s a look behind it.
The software behind the work
The tools I actually work with, in plain terms — modern, professional, and chosen because they’re the best for you, not the cheapest for me.

Apple & iCloud
iCloud, Mail, Photos, Apple IDFluent in the whole Apple world — setup, sync, and untangling it when it breaks.
iPhone & MacCross-platform by default; your Apple gear is right at home.
Security & Privacy

Every Platform

Pro dev & media toolsVS Code, Docker, video editing — the real toolkit, not hobbyist stuff.
Main hardware
The gear I work on — and come to you with.
obsidian2 — the workstationCustom Linux tower (AMD 6-core, RTX 2060, 32 GB). Where your website gets built, your backups run, and the tools live.
43″ Samsung Smart Monitor (M7 series)A big 4K workspace — room to build your site and keep an eye on the whole job at once.
MacBook Air (M1) — the field machineComes to you. Apple-native, so I’m right at home working on your Mac, on-site.
iPhone 17 Pro — always connectedKeeps me reachable and everything in sync, wherever the job takes me.
On the bench: mostly Klein Tools and the Milwaukee M18 battery system, with a little Knipex where precision counts — and Harbor Freight when that’s the honest right call. Best tool for the job beats the fanciest one.
In plain English
I take the same care with your computer, your data, and your home that I take with my own. No jargon, no upselling, no pressure — just an honest neighbor who happens to run a genuinely professional shop.
