If you've ever had that sinking feeling when something happens to your phone, you know how I felt today after dropping my iphone in a train station only to watch the glass shatter into about 30 pieces.

I have terrible luck with phones. I usually just leave my phone in cabs or on planes, but this time I had to stare at the busted screen while trying to Yelp a place to fix it.

Thinking I might just have to get a new phone, which would have been awful when the 6 is coming out in Sept, I was all excited to see the reviews for TechWorld. I was on the train about to hit Redwood station, so I just jumped out and went to find them. Totally nice little store which they just remodelled you can see the techs working on the phones. It all seemed legit.

They told me $99 for the phone repair with $10 off for checking in at Yelp. Yah! That was an awesome turn of events. Told me to come back in 45mins, so off I went to hang out in Peets for a bit. It was really uncomfortable to be without my phone because I have a real problem, but I suffered through the wait and sure enough, my phone was good as new when I went back!

The whole experience was quick and hassle free. The staff helped me get over the trauma of wrecking my phone for a cost it would be hard to complain about! Highly recommend and will be going back next time I do something stupid with my phone.

Much better than the apple store, same amount of hipsters though. Come to this place if you need ANYTHING, and i do mean anything, related to your Mac.

Good prices on repairs, upfront technicians who will tell you if its even worth it or not, and just a general good atmosphere. i'll be honest; if you don't do well in a nerdy atmosphere, go to best buy and buy some mundane looking thing. this place is all about tech, apple specifically. don't come here for MS either, go to best buy... then go cry.... best buy does that to me every time

On a Tuesday, my three year old Macbook suddenly "crashed" (blinking file folder with question mark screen). I took it to Apple, and they quoted me $750 for a logic board replacement. Of course, it's insane to spend $750 on a three year old computer, at that point you may as well get a new one.

I took it to Rossmann on a Thursday afternoon. By Friday, they have called me with a diagnosis. They say the hard drive is completely dead, as well as corrosion on the logic board, with little chance of recovering my data. They quote me at $350, over half of what Apple wanted to charge me.

By Tuesday afternoon, they call me to come pick it up with a brand new hard drive and extensive internal cleaning, and to my surprise, the data is completely recovered. I take it home that night, and it does the same problem screen. I take it back the following afternoon, they say the wire that connects the hard drive has failed (a common problem with Macbooks) they fix it in fifteen minutes (!) and for free.

My computer is now working like new, for $350! I hope to never have electronic problems in the future, but if I do I will certainly come here and recommend it to all my friends
