Lance is amazing! My Vaio Z laptop had stopped working so I took it in. Lance started working on it as soon as I arrived and fixed it in a matter of minutes! Totally saved my life. I have found my forever computer repair place. Thank you, Lance!

I would highly recommend That Bytes to anyone needing help with they're computer. Brought my computer in for a failed Power supply. Lance was very knowledgeable, straight to the point and fun to talk with. He fixed it up for a fair price and I'm back to work. Thanks, Lance, for the TLC. I'll be back when there's a problem in the future.

I came here based on the high recommendations on Yelp and elsewhere, and wasn't disappointed. Mark and Lance love what they do, and judging by the number of computers stacked up in their workspace, they're quite popular.
Mark let me know it might be a couple of weeks before they could get to my data transfer on the old computers I was needing to clear out, which wasn't a problem. But I was happily surprised when he called me a couple of days later to let me know that it was done! Everything was done correctly and they even wiped and recycled my old computers for me. Yay!
They do a lot more challenging work, like eradicating viruses and malware, and repairing and replacing components. I suggest you call ahead and plan to leave your computer there, since they are a small shop and keep very busy. They're now my go-to computer wizards, and I'm sure they're working their magic for many other Austin residents as well.
Finding the building is a little tricky since signage is minimal. Set your GPS and look for the low white building. They're down on the right.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Michael F.North Austin, Austin, TX155Mar 25, 2023
Owner is funny and knowledgeable. He checked my pc and ruled everything else out to confirm the problem was indeed my motherboard. Price was very reasonable as well. I definitely recommend.

Excellent PC repair shop, best I've been to in Austin. I went in to get a part screwed-in correctly on my PC. The older gentleman who worked there that day help me screw in the part, and then cleaned the interior of my case AND changed out the thermal paste on my CPU. Wouldn't even let me pay him. Highly recommend

I had an old external hard drive that I couldn't access and a MacBook Pro that was wildly slow - like open the web browser, go watch a movie and hope a webpage will be loaded when it's over slow.
Lance was able to transfer my hard drive to a new one and replaced my laptop hard drive and it's like I live in the future - or at least the present! Wherever I am, I'm happy!
Due to some staff issues, Covid has affected every small biz, turn around time was slow, but we communicated and it all worked out wonderfully. I'd say give him a heads up if you need it back quickly, he's responsive and friendly and will work with you. Definitely recommend!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Shanna D.Austin, TX62Sep 16, 2022
Lance saved me a lot of money and fixed my computer up good as new, even cleaned it. I'll never take my broken computers anywhere else as long as they're open.

Lance is not only joyfully entertaining, he quickly repaired my laptop for a reasonable price. Took time to explain process and options. Thought Dell was now a doorstop--it wouldn't even turn on.
Lance's skills saved my laptop!!Helpful 1Thanks 1Love this 0Oh no 0 - Anthony I.Austin, TX1015434Feb 11, 2021
Lance provides outstanding service, knowledge and friendliness. He repaired our Dell 2-in-1 Insprion 7000 and even did some research on an issue where it kept running hot...ended up helping us change BIOS settings that will greatly extend the life of the PC as well as the 2 others we have like it @ home.
He's friendly, funny and on-point. Hell, I like him even though he roots for the Green Bay Packers (and that says a lot coming from a Lions fan).
If you want a shiny store front and a slick salesman, this place ain't for you...but if you want honest and affordable repair from someone who knows his stuff, you've found it.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 0
