“Dave is very kind and professional! It’s hard to find someone who really knows tech this well, he cleaned out my expensive gaming PC and it looked brand new, I was very happy with the results and the price is justified. You’re paying for professional work and knowledge that is rare to find especially in Owensboro. I called in a month later because I needed my receipt in my email and he helped me again very quickly. Highly recommend him for your tech needs! Cool monitors and tech inside to shop around too :)”

“My computer would not go past the login. It began the death circle. I took it to Computer Dave on Friday and by Monday they had a mirror image of everything on the new computer. He saved me a ton of work. Couldn’t be happier. He was also very reasonable. I highly recommend Computer Dave!”

“Dealing with Computer Dave has been a great experience. He is so very helpful, kind, and I completely trust him and his advice. He even came to my house to help me hook up my new computer when I couldn’t figure it out. I would recommend him to anyone needing computer service or getting a new computer. Thanks Dave!!”

“I’ve been doing business with Dave for a number of years and have always found him to be honest, fair, and extremely competent. I would highly recommend him and his staff based on my experiences with their business. He also supports the less fortunate of our society with drives to collect things for the needy. Support him any way you can.”
