1. Do you want the evil
Windows Vista or Windows XP Professional? (As of yet no one has wanted
to buy Windows Vista from us!) We will
buy Windows Vista Business but install XP Professional.
2. Do you want a video card?
The video card has a heat sink twice the size of the heat sink that is
on the main motherboards of the computers that have "on board" video. Less
heat, less crashes, in theory much longer life.
We will never sell Windows HOME
Edition anything or Celeron processors because we like our customers and
don't want to expose them to that kind of abuse. So with that being said...
3. Almost always in this business
the following is true... The slowest speed AMD Sempron processor costs
$50 and the 2nd fastest processor is about $175. Middle of the road
is about $135. So which do you prefer? At times, this spread in price
is even less. Intel to match speed of AMD is $100 more when they can keep
up.
4. It is doubtful you can fill an
80 GB hard drive unless you download DVD movies and store them on your
computer. We offer up to 500 GB. Our computers have expansion areas
so you can even have 2 - 500 GB hard drives if you wish. Example 48 GB
of MP3 files is roughly 24 hours a day for 30 days of music without playing
the same song twice.
What size hard drive?
5. New (not reconditioned) in 19"
LCD monitors are $5 more than 17". I think that is a "No brainer."
All 15" are refurbished or used.
19" LCD correct?
6. Do you want Microsoft Windows?
We always sell real Microsoft Windows with a Certificate of Authenticity
with a serial number that will reinstall and a real Microsoft Windows CD
ROM! Dell, Emachine, Gateway & HP/Compaq have never been able
to say that.
7. Do you want your computer ready
to plug in and run when you buy it? Our computers are up to date
with virus programs and Windows updates at time they were built. (No need
for hours upon hours to get your 'store bought' computer up to date.)
8. Do you want to use your laptop
for 3+ years? NO laptop we have ever sold has had a problem with the power
cord area breaking and rendering the laptop unusable like HP's.
9. Do you want a place to
have your computer quality serviced? We service what we sell and
all others too. The worst turn around time ever here was 2 weeks.
