New Custom-Built Computer | Laptops | Computer Accessories | Popular Software

 

MARK RECOMMENDS GENUINE MICROSOFT WINDOWS XP®

Genuine Microsoft Windows Vista® is available. Recommended when peripheral equipment is certified to be compatible with Vista.  Vista is more secure conscious and has more media and entertainment-friendly applications and uses.

 

NOTE: MICROSOFT IS RELEASING SERVICE PACK 3 FOR WINDOWS XP.   I still recommend Windows XP for new computers for compatibility and performance..

 

   

NEW CUSTOM-BUILT COMPUTERS EXCEED RECOMMENDED SPECS FOR RUNNING XP® or VISTA®.

  • Built with parts with 3-year (or better) Manufacturer's Warranty 
    • Currently using ASUS M2A-VM motherboard, and AMD ATHLON 64 X2 DC 5200+ AM2 Dual Core Processor (2.7ghz).
    • All computers currently are priced to include Windows XP Home OEM (or Professional) with SP 2 and all software critical Updates/Patches pre-installed.  I can install Windows Vista Home Premium, Ultimate, or Business versions.   FREE set-up and delivery to you.  Computer components chosen all have 3-year warranties for better quality and performance. Ultimately there is no reason why a well built computer cannot last 3 to 5 years!   Professional towers (case) are high quality, easy-to-use, and use virtually no screws!

 

  • My warranty that is offered, is the Manufacturer Warranty (3-yr) of the core hardware components of the computer.  The tower case & power supply have lifetime warranty, when registered.

 

Why I sell ONE model of a computer??  You should have a computer that will not let you down, whether it is just for email and surfing the Internet, or to play games on, or to work with your business software or desktop publishing.  I also sell just one model of computer so it is clear to you what I recommend, and not confusing in choosing the right model of a new computer, like many box stores.
