We regret to announce a price increase. Starting immediately, all
clients of PCT Computer Services will be charged $75.00 for the first hour of
services and then $45.00 an hour after the first hour, prorated to the next five minutes.
This price increase was made necessary
due to rising costs in transportation and the general cost of living, however
the cost of our services remains substantially lower than other similar
services in San Diego County. We will continue to provide for the individual computer user the same kind of goods and services that
are provided to the professional and business community at a substantial savings.

Safekeeper 5.0 has arrived! Improving on the already great 4.1 version, the 5.0 version has added a search by password age feature. Additionally, you may now have a message warn you automatically if your password age is more than 2, 4, 6 or 12 months old when viewing an account. By monitoring your password ages, you can make sure old ones are updated regularly, thus keeping your accounts safer than before.
Always remember, however, to not save the password in Safekeeper until you are have changed it with your account holder.

PCT Computer Services is no longer supporting Ricochet Wireless
Services. It is our feeling that, while the service provided to date has
been acceptable, the company has changed hands too often and much of the
future development in Internet services will soon outpace and exclude them.

It is with regret that we announce a price increase. PCT Computer Services - The
Personal Computer Tutor has been in business for approximately five years. At no
time has there been a price increase to our customers. However, due to the increases
in gas and the cost of living, a new pricing structure will be in effect as of September
1st, 2003. Starting that day, the minimum visit fee is increasing to $50.00, which
will cover the first hour. The hourly rate after the first hour will remain at
$30.00 an hour. The net effect of this is that a visit will cost $10.00 more.
As always, this fee structure is based on the time utilized during the visit, does
not include a travel fee, does not include travel time and is not based on any particular
service. The rates for projects that do not require a visit will remain at $30.00 an
hour as well.

The Personal Home Manager 2 has been released for all operating systems! Unlike
PHM 1, which limited a person to only six Managers in the demonstration program, PHM 2 is
fully functional allowing a user to try it out for 30 days. After that time,
registration is required. After 60 days, the program will no longer respond at all
and should be uninstalled.
The gremlins at PCT Computer Services have been very busy putting together two new
'desk-top' utilities designed to make your life easier. Safe Keeper is a utility
designed to keep all of your user names and passwords in an easy-to-use and extremely
secure program. It can be used by the whole family and keeps the information
separate for each family member. For more information on Safe Keeper, click the Safe
Keeper link to the left.
The other new utility is a program designed to be an aid to a cluttered desk and is
called Scratch Pad. Created to be used just after notes are scribbled or to organize
the manner in which fast information is kept, Scratch Pad contains searching functions to
find phrases or words and can even print out the information you entered in a convenient
size. Keep lists, phone numbers, and other information in an easy to use and access
format and search by date, number, name or phrase. Quickly find the information you
need, rather than scrounging around your desk for an hour. For more information
about Scratch Pad, click the Scratch Pad link to the left.
