Barebone Systems

Many of you may or may not know about BareBone Systems. These systems are bought online usually without a monitor, keyboard or mouse and sometimes certain other pieces.  These systems are a great way to save money if all you need is the tower assembly. Sometimes, depending on the site, these systems can be reconfigured to suit your needs or you may get discounts on other purchases via their site for buying one.

For example A Barebone system may come with:
 Tower
 500W Power Supply
 500Gig Hard Drive
 Intel or AMD based motherboard
 DDR2 or DDR3 ram - depending on the make of the mother board
 A DualCore, QuadCore or even a 6Core CPU(Processor) - depending on make of the motherboard
 CPU Fan and Heatsink is usually included but not always.

This collection of parts, for the sake of arguement, has a price tag of $299.99. If bought seperately it may cost you $375.. nice savings overall. BUT, most people either don't realize or don't purchase these because they don't come pre-assembled.
That is another way I can help you, if  you would like to buy one of these systems considering you allready have a monitor, keyboard, mouse, speakers and all other input devices you need, bring the packages to me and I will assemble your new system for you. If you have your own copy of WindowsXP, Vista or Win7 I will install that too and update all your system drivers and security patches. NOTE: I do not sell copies of Windows you will need to purchase or own that yourself.
OR maybe you're feeling brave and would like to try Ubuntu Linux or OpenSuse Linux ... that I can provide for you and install, make sure all hardware is functioning properly, security patches are done.

If all you want is just to have the system assembled, I'll do that too, check out the price guide on the Price List and Services page and send me an email with your contact info or to set an appointment.
