PCMech launched way back in 1997, making it one of the longest running websites on the web. PCMech got its start explaining computer hardware in a plain-English way. It then expanded into the arena of building computers. Having survived the dot-com bust and moving into the age of blogging, PCMech converted into an actual blog, brought on additional writers, and kept on covering the changing scene. Today, as we move into a new age of mobile devices and lives increasingly powered by the Internet, PCMech continues to cover the world of technology. We evolve with the industry.

PCMech was founded by David Risley, an online entrepreneur and professional blogger. David is a geek, businessman, book author, consultant and all around tech enthusiast. You can learn more about David on his business blog, Blog Marketing Academy dot com.
