About Us

An Introduction:

Richard M. Foster established RMF MicroComputer Services in 1993.  Always very enthusiastic about computers, Richard acquired formal training in computer programming at the College of Geographic Sciences (NSCC) in Lawrencetown, Nova Scotia. Richard quickly realized the large demand for personable home and small business based computer service and training within his own community of Digby, Nova Scotia. While working full-time in an unrelated field, Richard assisted local business owners and home computer users in better understanding their systems’ potential and limitations.  Richard has further ventured into website creation and management, taking full advantage of his hobby of graphic design.

RMF CircuitRichard moved to the Annapolis Royal area in the late ‘90’s where he now works full-time in an unrelated field and part-time out of his home for his computer services company.

Glenn Foster (Richard’s brother) officially began working for RMF MicroComputer Services in 2003 after rekindling an interest in computers.  Working in his spare time for RMFMCS and full-time in an unrelated field, Glenn soon became the ‘go-to guy’ for computer related problems among his friends and co-workers.  As with Richard, Glenn realised the need for personable computer repair and consulting services (at fair and reasonable prices) in his area.

While working on computers for clients and for himself as a hobby, Glenn completed the required study for official computer technical certification in June 2007.  He is now recognized by industry professionals as a certified “CompTIA A+” computer technician.
