ICS formally known as Macintel Solutions started in January 2006. The company started a small workshop in Umbilo servicing the small to medium Apple based companies. In order to comply with Apple’s policy and trademark restrictions, the company was forced to change its name. Six months into 2006 Macintel re-branded itself to iComputing Solutions (ICS) which acquired Apple Authorized Reseller status through meeting Apple’s targets and deadlines.
