Having just bought a new IMAC, I was not in a good mood when I had some problems with the machine. First, bad pixels (fixed by a different shop), second (and far worse) the machine kept locking. I bought the MAC to avoid this problem! After a few calls with Apple, they put me in touch with Techsuperpowers. They came out to my house from Newbury Street, tore down the computer, but the equivalent of a motherboard in, and ran all kinds of tests to make sure none of my memory chips or other "things" were causing any problems. They did a great job, as my computer runs like a dream now (as was hoped). Their rep was timely, and did a great job.

Harvard Book store is not affiliated with Harvard University so you won't see any textbooks here but the selection for every other genre of literature is superb. It is not about quantity at this bookstore but quality books at a sometimes below market price. The basement houses one of the best used book sections in the area while the upstairs has a section for most genres though it leans towards the social sciences and humanities. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and well read. This means that the selection at the front of the store is almost always full of interesting books not likely to grace the bookshelves of Barnes and Noble.

Giant Glass was a savior when my windshield needed replacing (smashed during a robbery). The company sent someone out to where my car was within a few hours of me calling. The person who worked on my car was very knowledgeable and had me on my way very shortly. The company even handled all of the insurance company's paperwork that needed to be filed. A great company!

This place is (or was) my favorite bookstore in Boston. They were located in a quaint little area on Newbury Street, but the rent sky rocketed and they could no longer afford to stay in the building. They have, however, decided to move locations and open up very soon. While us book lovers wait in anticipation they do provide updates of their status on the website, which I highly recommend everyone checks out. I usually go on and harass them about opening shop sooner, is suggest everyone does the same.

I am a tried and true Diesel fanatic. I don't care how expensive Diesel jeans are, the fit is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING. I've tried on almost every pair of designer jeans (rock & republic, antik, paper, mavi, citizen, etc etc etc)and nothing fits like Diesel

This is a fun novelty store on Charles Street, filled with a bunch of fun stuff aside from paper products. The paper products they do stock, however, are high quality and worth a special trip.

I took a pair of pants here, that another cleaner had "tried to clean" and only ground the stain in further. They were able to remove the stain, even after they'd already been dry-cleaned once. Be very specific when you bring stuff in to be cleaned though, I once paid $5 a shirt when they hand cleaned them instead of dry-cleaning them - who knew I needed to specify? Luis the Tailor has also done a very good job with all of the work he has done for me.

My ABSOLUTE FAVORITE clothing store to shop for work attire or for a professional look. The style is so smart, so chic, and so clean! The prices aren't outlandish and the sales clerks are such sweethearts! My only complaint is, their pants/skirt sizes change from season to season... so I fit into the spring/summer line but not in the fall/winter line!

I used spectrum for photo reprints and have always been pleased with the service and product. The only downside of using Spectrum is that they are so popular and busy, it can take a few days to get your photo prints or whatever you are having done. Still, I recommend them and use them often.

This store is a great little shop for wedding invitations and other paper products. The staff is extremely helpful in finding designs that match what you are looking for in an invitation. They also have a lot of fun guest books, journals, address books, etc. I highly recommend this store.
