Nope, sorry, cant compete with that market. Best buying from Future Shop, Best Buy, Etc.
Since there seems to be some interest, i'll tell you what we do. When i say we, i really mean me, as i am basicly being given the company. Might work out, might not, its a gamble, but it will be fun. If you are worried about warranty, the manufacturers waranty on most parts is three years.
We only do Custom PC's. You know what you want? Great, I'll build it. We don't sacrifice performance/reliability unless the customer is completely aware of the differences, and isnt willing to pay a little extra for it. The parts all come in from a few suppliers that have proven themselves. One has been a supplier ot the company for 8 years, as long as weve been in business.
Don't know what you want? Tell me what you will be using it for, and i'll tell you what you need. I wont bullshit you either. Ifyou dont need it, i may suggest it, say its not really necessary, and you can decide if its worth the extra cost.
The actual machine is not put in its case until it is fully functional, and burned in for a minimum of 24 hours. After that, the building process takes the longest amount of time. If it doesnt look great, comprmises airflow, etc. It gets redone.
Dammit, CSI came on and lost my train of thought. This post took me so long to write, its supposed to be after Tat's post and before Ace's. Will edit post later, if i havent already covered everything. Any questions, feel free.

Yeah, ive been working on getting that done for a while, but im not very good with web pages. I hosted a basic support site for a while off my home computer , but that has been long since forgotten. We have never sold outside the province, so there has been no real need. Most (if not all) of our advertising is word of mouth. This is a very small island, very close knit, and if you piss someone off, chances are, 300 ppl will know within an hour, and you'll have a call from your local politician in no time.
The owner is somewhat of a web guy, and ive been pestering him for a computer site for some time now, which he did sort of work on for a while, but he is too busy right now with the watch side of the company to be bothered. We are the Canadian Distributors for Lucien Piccard Time peices. Anyone in Ft. Lauderdale may have passed by the headquarters, and they used to be located in NYC.

Well, if you really want an ultimate gaming laptop, grab one from alienware. If you are on a somewhat of a budget, i can get you a nice 2.4GHz p4, 512MB DDR333 , Radeon 9000 graphics, 40GB hdd, cdrw/dvdrom combo, network card, modem, 15"tft, windows XP pro, fro about 2500$ CDN (maybe less, but no more). I will have to double check this, but that is what it was last time i checked. And since it is sold out of province, i dont think you have to pay provincial tax, just the GST.
alrighty thank you maury mac ill save myt money then im gonna ask you again!!! lol
