Capitol Macintosh

I went to Capital Macintosh two days ago. Whenever I tried to play a video on my
I-​Mac a «blocked plug-​in» notification would appear on the screen. When I brought it in he offered to take a look at it. Within ten minutes he had it running fine. No charge.
What I didn’t tell him is that I had been to Best Buy before that. Waited in line about half an hour there. The «Geek» at the counter tried a couple of things and wanted to try more. I wandered around the store for a half hour and then returned. Her diagnosis was: Computer needed a new operating system, additional memory and cleaning. She told me the old operating system was outdated and would not support the new adobe flash. She recommended I buy the $ 200 service agreement and the parts cost would be around $ 350. One of two (perhaps both) things are going on at Best Buy. One, she really didn’t know what she was doing. Two, the «Geeks» are encouraged to push unnecessary repairs. Both good reasons to stay away from there. I won’t be going there again.
Capital Macintosh is my new computer center and I highly recommend to store
to everyone.

The video card on my MacBook Pro died yesterday afternoon. I brought my laptop into Capitol Macintosh and they diagnosed and fixed the problem in less than 24 hours. I’m truly impressed with their speedy, professional, and friendly service and will continue bringing my business to them in the future.

I love these guys! They are a super small shop that repairs Apple computers and sells all Apple products (except phones) in the Lansing and East Lansing area, with 2 technicians and 1 front desk guy. They really know what they are doing and have got personality to boot. Real people. I just had my 2008 Macbook Pro in for service because it was running sooooo slow that I thought I needed a new computer. A few days later the computer was running almost as fast as my wife’s 2012 Macbook Pro. Just excellent! I was trained as an electrical engineer, so I can appreciate the work they do from that perspective too. Highly recommended.

Small little boutique Apple retailer.
Reminiscent of the way Apple used to business, Capital Macintosh is a certified Apple retailer that existed prior to the big-​box Apple Stores of today. They are a small shop but have consistently had every Apple accessory that I have needed, when I need it.
They are more than willing to order components and computers, and they’re setup to do surgery on your Mac. Conveniently located on Michigan Ave these Apple Specialists can provide you Apple service without having to drive to Novi or Troy.
