When Newton County residents need help with their computers there is one place that comes to mind and that’s PC Afterdark.

Located in the Covington Crossing shopping center, PC Afterdark offers a variety of services and products. The store repairs computers, laptops, printers, some fax machines, software, virus and spyware and networking.

They install programs both on-site and in-shop, they sell computers, printer supplies, computer parts, limited software (mostly business standards and virus protection), laptop parts, a wide range of computer cables, camera cables, hard drives, printers, networking hardware and fax machines. They can also special order many different items for customers.

In business for the last 12 years, owner Joe Davidson opened the actual store in 2000, but began servicing Newton County from his home on a part-time basis.

“I enjoy giving customers good advice,” Davidson said. “I was a computer technician and I like to play with computers. That’s pretty much why most of us are here. It was a hobby turned into what we do for a living.”

PC Afterdark is open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. until 7 p.m. and on Saturday from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. Closed Sunday. They can be reached at (770) 788-7000.
