Supporting I.T. was formed in the last century amidst the frenzy of Y2K compliance. While many companies simply cashed in on the hysteria surrounding the turn of the century, we simply advised customers that there was very little to worry about, and quietly distributed copies of a simple free programme from the internet which tested a users computer for compliance and mostly passed them. The few computers that failed, were rectified by the installation of a small programme that fixed the problem or replaced.

Honesty, fair play and practical expertise are at the center of what and who we are. We have a wide range of skills on offer, and take pride in doing things right. We feel this is validated by the number of customers who introduce thier friends to us, probably the best form of advertising and flattery there is.
