Kevin Nealon Testimonials

 

Patricia A. Daly, M.D.; Front Royal Internal Medicine Associates
Top 10 reason's why Kevin Nealon is my nerd-of-choice:

10.   He is bilingual (speaks fluent Mac and PC and when necessary can translate both into English).
9.     He uses passwords I can remember.
8.     He makes house calls (I'm a doctor, and I don't do that!).
7.     He doesn't just fix my computer, he tells me about stuff that make my life easier, like more memory and a
        newer operating system so I don't crash all the time.
6.     He is one of two people in the entire world who has some idea how the "computer network from hell" in my
        office is rigged together.
5.     No job is too small for him - and it takes him a lot less time to install software than it would take me!
4.     He is not the person who rigged together the "computer network from hell."
3.     He actually seems to like the challenge of undoing what I've done to my computer system.
2.     He always returns my calls.
1.     He has been known to drive down a mountain in the dark of night in a blizzard (at least, the Virginia version
        of a blizzard) to get my network up and running again before office hours.

Kevin Nealon has worked for us since 2008 as a computer consultant on both Macs and PCs.  He has solved a variety of problems involving installation of new software, network issues, printer and scanner problems, hardware compatibility, and the like.  He has been a valued advisor and has saved us money in the purchase of new equipment.  His honesty and integrity are unquestionable. Over the years, we have learned to trust and respect his expertise, his patience, and his unfailing good humor.  Kevin is easy to work with and always gives any effort his best try.  He brings a lot of energy to his work, and is unruffled when there are unexpected obstacles.  Best of all, he makes an effort to be responsive and to  meet your needs and your timing, which is so important for busy people.

Randy W. Boxx; Dean of Harry F. Byrd, Jr. School of Business, Shenandoah University
I have used Kevin on several occasions recently for addressing personal computer issues that I had at my home.  In each instance, he was quick to respond, solved each of my issues so that they did not return, and was a delight to visit with in my home.  In addition, my wife engaged him for helping her learn her own new laptop.  Even though she did not have the computer experience of most, he assisted her and built her confidence level.  I highly recommend Kevin for the professional services that he can render.

Margaret Engel; Director, Alicia Patterson Foundation
I could not have worked for the last 15 years without Kevin Nealon. He’s a computer genius. There’s no way I could have produced annual reports, school directories, books, mailing lists, etc. without him. Kevin has an extraordinary ability to understand computers and translate it into English for his clients. He even does this over the phone, with me talking about “the button thing on the right side” and Kevin understanding my frustrated babble. He’s able to easily walk me through any and all problems with printers not printing, weird margins popping into letters, numbering pages, etc. etc. He’s got an incredibly clear, logical mind and makes the easiest solutions that save me money. He doesn’t require me to learn more than I need to get my task completed. He’s always available and has helped me through dozens of deadlines. He knows printing production, graphics, photos, typography – all aspects of getting work done. He’s indispensable. He’s helped my husband, my friends, my mother and co-workers. Every computer should come packaged with Kevin!!

Dr. George Kolodner; Director, Kolmac Clinic
I have worked with Kevin since 1987 and have consistently found that he is able to develop creative and effective solutions to a wide variety of problems that I have presented to him. He has worked with a variety of my staff members and always maintained comfortable, yet professional relationships with them. I would recommend him highly to persons in need of computer consulting services.

Dorothy Goodman (Mrs. R.J.), Ph.D.; Founder, Washington International School;
Founder, Friends of International Education

Kevin Nealon has advised me and my family personally, and Friends of International Education and the World Public Charter School of Washington institutionally for more than a decade on all computer matters.

I cannot recommend him too highly. He is enormously knowledgeable about Macintoshes and also PC’s. As a teacher, he is superb. He is always infinitely patient. No matter how many times he has explained something previously, he always graciously does it again and never makes one feel that one is an ignoramus.

Richard G. Thomas, Editor; Roll Call Report Syndicate
Kevin has performed numerous invaluable services for Roll Call Report Syndicate in the past 15-plus years – from teaching us Mac basics in the late 1980s to writing customized graphics and text software in 2002-2003. The fruits of his outstanding software design are regularly published in a wide variety of U.S. newspapers.
Kevin is not only highly skilled but also prompt, conscientious and a pleasure to work with.

Nuzhat Sultan; Executive Director, Washington Art Associates
As a small business owner, I am dependent on Kevin’s expertise not only in advising me on what software programs to get but also to set up things like web sites as my business has grown. I have been working with Kevin Nealon for almost 14 years. Kevin has come to my rescue many times. Often he has been able to help me solve my computer problems by talking me through it on the phone.

Kevin is the only computer consultant we’ve ever worked with who brings along his own cappuccino maker. It’s just like having your favorite brainy college friend in to help. He’s also a bike nut and has a hat fetish. And you thought computer geeks were dull…!!!!

Not only does Kevin Nealon actually solve the many practical problems in applying computer technology to the small office, he manages to employ patience and humor with the computer illiterate while doing so. He’s proven himself a capable guide to the 21st century for those of us still pencil-dependent.

Roger F Klinger; Director of Counseling Ministry
Kevin Nealon is an outstanding computer expert who has been a godsend to me over the years, setting up my computer systems, giving excellent advice on software programs and making numerous house calls to rescue me from computer crashes and glitches.

He is always exceptionally prompt in returning calls, always makes room to fit me in for consultations whether via phone or for home visits, and and he has displayed a consistent level of the highest caliber service. In addition, his honesty,fairness, warmth and good natured personality are an added gift as it is a pleasure to have a consultant on hand that you trust fully with your home and computers. I would be in serious trouble given my lack of mechanical/computer knowledge without Kevin on call and it is always a pleasure having someone of his caliber on hand.
