Francis, (Nash or Ataricade)

Is a member here, but doesn't post too much. I was tipped off by another KLOV'er that he was offering tech & repair services on Atari boards (check out his site)

http://www.ataricade.com/

So, I shipped him off my Major Havoc/Space Dual conversion board set. Get this, after 1 day he had already diagnosed and repaired the problems!!!!!. Keep in mind that I had the entire machine at another tech's shop for almost 3 months with no results. Francis provides great communication, and top notch service. He even scavanged a needed part from one of his personal working boardsets to get mine up and running, that was truly above and beyond anything I expected. His pricing is fair and with the quick turnaround, and professionalism he displays I'd never think twice about using him again in the future for Atari repairs.

Thanks again Francis, you ROCK!! With your help I'm now able to enjoy this . . .

I have seen his site before. He has a pretty sweet collection.

I still say Atari should have stuck with that Paperboy prototype style cab. Damn nice looking machine.
 
Francis is beyond helpful and friendly.

If it has to do with Atari (cabs, etc) - he knows it.

Super guy - if you need something, you should give him a shout!
 
wow..... congrats dean on gettin' the MH fired up and working. the monitor looks great!

i totally agree with you..... francis is one cool dude. i might have to send my mh board out to him too. i think my mh conversion has now been out @ dave's shop for like 4 months now :( doh! gotta go get it. chris
 
I concur - I ordered a part for my toobin sound PCB - came quick and he was more than helpful in emails. (and yes, my toobin now has sound)
