iFixit Press Releases
SAN LUIS OBISPO, California-- February 10, 2006.
PB FixIt, maker of the revolutionary Fixit Guide series, today announced that it has changed its name to iFixit. The new web address is www.iFixit.com.
Explaining the move, iFixit CEO Kyle Wiens said, "Why are we changing names? A few reasons. The first: iFixit sounds cooler. Secondly, Apple is discontinuing the PowerBook name and we want to stay relevant to all Mac owners. But most important, we want to keep our options open. Our team is working incredibly hard to improve our product line and develop the Fixit Guide series."
iFixit's revolutionary do-it-yourself laptop repair manuals, the Fixit Guide Series, will continue to be free online at www.iFixit.com/Guide.
iFixit also announced the expansion of its online products. "I'm proud to announce that we have over 600 different Mac parts and upgrades in-stock and ready to ship. We couldn't be more excited about our market position," said Kyle Wiens.
