Is Computer Repairs Business Dead In Penrith?

If we look at what used to happen on the business about 5 years ago, we can conclude that the computer repairs business Penrith is almost dying. This is because at that time, it was about swapping motherboards, repairing XP machines, carrying out ram upgrades and installing hard drives.

The rates of such repairs are around $60/hr with other technicians charging up to $120/hr. Many people are not ready to spend such an amount on a $400 computer. Because such computers are slow and checking for bad sectors alone can take up to 5 hours. In the long run, the repair cost exceeds the initial purchasing price. So, most people would prefer buying a new one once it breaks down.

Also, in previous years computer repairs Penrith used to make lots of money doing data recovery and virus removal. However, today, almost every person can Google and get access to free virus scanners. And for those who are handy enough can do most computer repairs by following online tutorials. So businesses that have offered these services over the years view the business as dead.

Fortunately, the firms that have adapted to the changing market are still finding the business thriving. Computer repairers who have decided to specialize in areas where other shops won’t like for instance, in servers and networks are now reaping the fruits. For them, the computer repairs business in Penrith is not dead.
