15 reviews of The Mac Shop 'This shop is an oasis in the wilderness of expensive computer repair. To say they just fix Mac's is an understatement - they fix them quickly, at a very low cost - in the process one gets an education in all things Mac. This shop is to Mac repair, what Steve Jobs is to Mac design. I highly recommend these guys.' Nearly perfect I have a specific usage case - I work in a multiplatform environment in which I work on the Mac and on the PC. I don't want to keep changing physical keyboards, so despite the fact that the two physical machines are next to eachother beneath my desk, I use remote desktop to view and operate the PC while working on the Mac.
