About Us

The Peat Group, Inc. began in January of 1998 with the goal of serving the needs of Mac users in the Central, Ohio area. Since then we've incorporated and joined Apple's Consultant Network, a group of like minded Mac geeks serve Mac users all over the world.

Over these 10 years, OS X has been released, Apple has moved to the intel chip and introduced the iPod and the iPhone. The Peat Group, Inc. hasn't sat still through all this advancement. In addition to keeping up with Apple's advancements in technology, we've added several other services to our portfolio including video services based on all of Apple's video technology (though we also work with Mpeg, WMV and Flash video formats).

We're also known as the Keynote gurus in many Mac circles. Brian started Keynoteuser.com shortly after Apple released Keynote 1.0 and the site has been maturing along with Keynote. This year we released several amazingly flexible presentation themes for Keynote ’08 and are looking forward to a new release in ‘09 (though don't hold us to that, Apple has never been predictable with product releases).

More recently we've delved into the Joomla world, creating dynamic and easily modifyable sites for our clients (this site is also based on Joomla, complete with a full Knowledge base and client trouble ticket system). If you're looking for something that makes standard HTML sites antique, and you don't want to have to call us every few days to make changes to your website, we'd be glad to give you a quote on our Joomla services.

We look forward to working with you, and as always, feel free to contact Brian at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it to talk about what we can do for you.
