Computer America

Both Segments: Mike Cermak, Owner/Operator of Techguy.org

Over the past decade, we’ve had a lot of great members come and go. The site has grown from a simple site of common solutions to a whole community of people trying to help others. We learn and share and see a lot more than tech support come out of the site every day. I like to think that we make some small difference in the world. Even in this day of complicated software, spyware and viruses, our great team of Moderators and volunteers help to make computing a little easier for everyone who visits. With more than 100 new users registering every day, Tech Support Guy shows no sign of stopping.
