…all examples of great moments in technology.

Welcome to Tech Tails, a guided journey through the world of all things Apple and to a greater extent, all of the technologies that make our world amazing.

My name is Mike Dalius, one of the technicians at our South Burlington store, and I will be taking over hosting duties from Barry, who was a technician in our Manchester, NH location (more on that here).

Though some of the faces may be different, Tech Tails remains the same for now. “Tech talk made plain & simple” is our motto, and together I believe that we can make the most out of Apple technology. (After all, these are Macs and iPhones, not Dells and Androids. ;))

Our goal is simple: Remedy your spinning pinwheels and restore order to your operating systems. This week, we will learn where your money goes when you check in a computer with us, a solution to your media format woes, and some helpful hints for keeping your Mac secure.

Mike
