If you want to have your computer delivered to you, installed, looked after, be initialized, we will look after the new computer baby with full dedication like a country computer doctor. Find out what it all entails
We are dealers for Bondwell computers from one of the largest Canadian computer manufacturers, but also build computers customized to your requirements. New computers include Windows 98, and other software. We combine competitive pricing with excellent service.
If you are interested in buying a used computer we can help you too. In most cases however we don't recommend to get a used computer as you basically pay relatively more for it and the warranty is only a few months. Leasing is also a possibility.
We can get you all the usual software for your business, homeadministration, education, games. Although we have our recommendations and preferences, we will supply you with the software you want if it is available from our distributors.
We repair your computer in our workshop or take it out to the supplier or manufacturer to get it repaired. If it turns out that repairing is not an economic solution we will let you know too. Check out our
support contracts.
Windows 2000, XP, Vista and older systems... DOS (running under windows with an emulator for those old barn programs), Windows 98, Oasis, THEOS386, UNIX, Xenix, Linux
We provide training on a one to one basis, but you can bring two friends. We found classes are mostly frustrating for the participants and the teacher as levels are individually very different. You will decide what you would like to know and we will find out from you what you need to know. Most software packages have so many features to offer that it will take many sessions to get familiar with them. The main goal is to learn what pertains to your business work and productivity. The most important thing is to learn how to learn with computers... how to use the existing help features, tutorials and how to evolve into a power user and to be as productive and efficient as possible with your computer.
We can get you online with one of your local service providers. Come in with your computer. We will sign you up on the spot and set your computer up, so you have no worries, and off you go!
However when you see this Web Page you must be online already! Nevertheless you might know someone who would like to get connected to the Internet, like your friend, relative, boss, employee, business relation or class mate. They're welcome to drop in.
Have your own homepage or whole site on the net for your business. We will sit down with you to talk about the essentials of your business and what you would like to have as you profile to a world of millions of users. What is your target market, how do you want to reach you audience. We also create banners for your use as crosslink on affiliated sites. There are many web designers and generators out there, but many of them are not particularly efficient and updating
a page afterwards is often extremely tedious. Also many don't take into account that about 10 percent (which is
millions of users) cannot see the fabulous graphics on your spiffy page. It is very important to make your site accessible to those users as well.
Why would you need us to set up your web page, if you can do it yourself with these webpage generators? Unfortunately they don't teach you the tricks of the trade. The Web is great, the Internet is fantastic, but you want to be sure you have a page that comes up fast... gives all the essential information in one glance and entices the really interested surfer to get more info from you.
Get your web page up on the net. We find that a business is expected to have their information on the World Wide Web...Even if it is only for your existing customers.
A picture is worth a thousand words. We will scan your photographs for you and these can be included in the homepage. (as long as this complies with copyright and other laws)
An installation properly done can make your new machine more efficient. Often we can optimize existing systems to be faster and to have more space. And if optimization is not a feasible option, upgrading
often is.
We figure out what is wrong with your computer. If you have a problem, we try to solve it first over the phone, In many cases that will do the trick. But you can bring in the machine and we will diagnose what is wrong and teach you how to properly shutdown the computer and start it up.
When you purchase a computer from us, your machine has warranty on parts and labour. However you can purchase onsite warranty for an annual fee that is similar to one onsite service call. A great deal!
Onsite means we will do our utmost to fix the problem at your place, and if it requires more extensive attention, we will ship it to the manufacturer for warranty repair. Also ask about our replacement contracts.
Support Contracts for businesses and individuals.
We sell our skills and knowledge to you We tailor our support contracts to your needs. From availability to hardware replacement.
Who are we?
Hopefully not computer nerds, but then maybe we are. We like computers and sometimes we hate them probably just as much as the average user who encounters a computer problem. However we are here to solve and have your computer problems so it is our job, but even for us it can be very frustrating sometimes. Of course the most what we like about our business is not having problems but encountering all kinds of people in all kinds of businesses.
Our Interests and hobbies
We like astronomy, Jim used to publish astronomy books and organize solar eclipse expeditions all over the world for groups of about a hundred observers, and Ellen is now a glider pilot at York Soaring. We like photography and nature, and therefore Unicamp.
But our main interest is to take care of your computer and prevent you having a problem with it. Our motto is You don't have computer problems, we take them from you and in the great majority of cases we solve them. Sometimes we find the strangest things. Especially with systems that we didn't sell or install. In most cases problems can be solved quite fast.
