Gift a Mac for Christmas November 07 2016

Every year from November through December, we clear out our inventory of Macs due to the holidays. We get customers in from all over Utah to take advantage of our refurbished Mac prices and included lifetime service warranty. Our customers take comfort in the fact that they can get a pre-owned Mac at half the cost of a new one, and from a business that they can depend on. We pride ourselves on selling high-quality, like-new Macs that we fully stand behind. We aim to provide the best prices and service possible to our customers. So, with the holidays approaching, skip the Apple store lines and prices and check out Got Mac. We sell both desktop and laptop Apple computers.

Sluggish Mac? We Can Help! November 03 2016

Is your Mac more sluggish than unusual? We can help!
 
Mac slowness can be the result of a lack of system memory (or RAM), especially if you have upgraded your operating system recently (the newer ones use more memory). Let us upgrade your RAM. It's one of the most affordable upgrades you can do for your Mac.
 
Slowness can also be remedied by replacing older hard drives with new solid state drives that use flash technology (like flash thumb drives). They're significantly faster and yield much better performance. We can do that upgrade, too!
 
Finally, it's possible that your operating system may be corrupt, or worse, you could have a failing hard drive. If you suspect this, back up your data quick and/or bring it into us!
 
We're right next to Bowman's (same building as Ace Hardware) in Kaysville. Come in from 10-6, Monday - Friday.

We Do Upgrades September 30 2016

We upgrade a lot of Macs here at Got Mac. Because they last so long, people want to invest in them to keep them running up to speed. Most people don't know that we can upgrade both laptop and desktop Macs. That's right! We can upgrade your storage space, or even put in a super fast solid state drive. We can also upgrade the amount of memory or RAM. We can even upgrade your operating system for you. The other guys will charge you an arm and a leg, but because we want to earn your business, we only make a small profit on upgrades. As long as our customers keep coming back to us, which they do, it's totally worth it.

So, before you go out and buy a brand new computer, talk to us and we'll help you understand why upgrading your "older" Mac is the best option. We know what we're doing and we wouldn't steer you wrong. We're not in this to make money, we're here because we love what we do and because we want to help you, the customer, get the best technical advice out there. An honest, up front approach is what we aim for, and you can expect that from us in whatever we do.

Interested in a solid state drive and not sure if you're old Mac is compatible? if it's newer than 2005, it is! Let us take care of that for you. We only need your computer for a few yours and we're much more affordable than our competitors. So, what are you waiting for? Give us a call!

macOS Sierra September 20 2016

Apple's newest operating system, macOS Sierra, was released this morning. It introduces many new features including Siri for Mac! We're excited ti try it out. Along with performance and security enhancements, macOS Sierra includes several new features that users will find convenient and useful. While not all software is compatible with the new operating system yet, if there is software that you use that you rely on, you may want to hold off for a couple weeks for those companies to update their software. But, if you're confident in downloading, go and get it! And let us know how you like it. We'll be trying it out for ourselves very shortly.
