04/28/2026

Exciting news: We’ve sold our ownership in a different computer company and are resuming operations as Delson Computer within the next 4–6 weeks. Need something sooner? Reach out now but our full operations won’t be live until then.

Our focus: We serve small businesses, organizations, schools, nonprofits, and faith communities that need a steady, long-term IT partner. You get practical advice, clear communication, reliable follow-through, and a partner you can reach when you need us.

Residential work: We’re serving older clients but taking very little new residential work going forward. We’ll consider one-off projects like data recovery, e-discovery, email migration, and half/full/multi-day engagements. We may also handle computer-to-computer or server-to-server migrations. Wondering if your project fits? Email [email protected] or call 843-633-6639.

What’s next: Watch for our new website at delsoncomputer.com, live in the next few weeks. We’ll make an official announcement closer to the end of May (or sooner if things move faster).

Common Question - I'm relocating to blah-blah-blah, which company offers the best internet there?

Answer - Ask your neighbors, specifically next door, cross the street, down the block and seriously vet. How many times a month do you experience an outage, how long is the outage, is support good when you call for help? Don't ask about or mention internet speed - your neighbors may have cheap or ill-maintained network equipment; others may not want or need faster internet plans. The key is quality of service. Just because Wow or Comcast is good in one neighborhood, doesn't mean that's true a few blocks down the road or throughout your area. If you have further questions, call 843-276-6551 or stop by our office - Delson Computer/Electric Red at 1662 Savannah Highway in Charleston. We've serviced thousands of clients and can help you pick the right ISP and the right network equipment for your needs.

Yesterday Apple launched IOS 11 for iPhone and iPads. As with many major software updates there are bound to be issues. The biggest issue that has been uncovered in the past 24 hours is that iOS 11's mail app is having problems sending and receiving emails with Microsoft's Outlook and Office 365 services.

If you have an iPhone or iPad or check your Office 365 email from your iDevice we request you DO NOT upgrade your device at this time.

If you upgrade you will have issues with your email and we do not have a way of fixing this issue.

Both Apple and Microsoft are working on a fix for this issue and we will provide an update when it has been resolved.

As always please call us if you have any issues, concerns or require assistance.

Thank you!

Want a good value computer? One that will last you in most cases three to five years or more? It's super simple. Find out the manufacturer's warranty. If it's a Windows computer avoid those with a built-in one-year warranty from the manufacturer; in most cases these computers don't last as long with average wear and tear. And if something major breaks under warranty in most cases you are typically out of pocket for at least several days or weeks without a computer.

Does being without your computer for weeks sound appealing?

We emphatically DON'T recommend purchasing computers like this due to increased likelihood of trouble. Instead we recommend Apple computers or "business class" windows computers with a built-in three year warranty from the manufacturer.

This is NOT the same as buying a one-year warrantied computer and getting a free additional year of warranty coverage for being a valued Costco member. Or buying a one-year warrantied computer from BestBuy and buying two additional years of warranty coverage from BestBuy.

Instead consider Apple Macbook laptops, Dell Optiplex desktops, etc. that have better than average consumer satisfaction and/or three-year next business day on-site repair warranty from the manufacturer.

Here's why. Manufacturer's are in the business of making money. They hate having to cover warranty repairs especially on business class computers sold in huge volumes. Consequentially, they put higher quality emphasis on engineering and higher quality components that last longer so there's less chance of break-down; an added bonus - most of these computers come stock without allot of crap-ware and trial-ware which slow things down.

Look for a computer with a next business day repair warranty where the manufacturer sends someone to your door to repair/replace major components for free. When something breaks you're not shipping your computer off for weeks which mitigates disruption to your life and/or your business; also you typically get a higher than average quality help-desk so you're not wasting even more time getting the run-around.

For a few hundred dollars more on average per computer this piece of advice has been reported by most of our client's as the single smartest computer making decision they've made.

Windows 10 Privacy and DoNotSpy10 app

We're not recommending folks move to Windows 10 right now for several reasons. For those of you that have taken the plunge, If you don't change 10's privacy settings, Microsoft will in accordance with the EULA (end-user license agreement) collect all the info it can gather on you. Those seeking privacy should consider DoNotSpy10 from Majorgeeks.com. DoNotSpy10 aggregates all Windows 10 privacy settings into a single screen and allows you to turn on/off each one easily.

Download it from FireFox or Google Chrome, not Window's 10 Edge Browser which won't work. When installing DoNotSpy10, choose a "custom" installation and uncheck any crap-ware normally included in the installation.

There's at least 20 different privacy settings one can alter and the program can be run as many times as you like.
