Need a new computer for your home?

Announcing a Great PC Deal for the Home Exclusively from TechSmart

Around this time of year we usually get the question:

“I’m looking for a cheap PC- should I buy a computer at _______ (insert retail outlet)?”

We’d have to say… no!

While we don’t mind seeing people come in a year (or sometimes less) after they bought a PC or laptop ‘because it was a good deal’ at a local retailer…  we only seem to see you when you’re bringing in a broken  PC that should have lasted a lot longer!  This is all too common with ‘hook’ deals at these retailers- it’s easy to practically give away something that will break in a year!

That $299 computer may end up costing you $500 to replace in a year and probably has the bottom-rung processor, memory and hard drive.  Just enough to barely run Windows!  So, you’ll end up in our shop needing to upgrade anyway!

With all the options out there, why not ask the people you trust to put together a system you’ll love that doesn’t skimp on quality?  As a top-tier Dell reseller in Northern Colorado, it would only make sense that people ask us these questions!

So this year we thought we’d offer something we’ve never done before- Buy a Dell PC for your home, pre-built to our recommended specifications… for a limited time starting at $499!

**Pricing of components was current in November- please be aware that prices may fluctuate and are only valid when purchased with this system.  Please call for exact pricing of add-on components.
Please also note that this system CANNOT be used in a business environment because it is only sold with Windows 7 Home Premium.  However, if you need a new PC for your office, don’t despair!  We now have pre-configured/recommended Dell PCs and Laptops for the office too!
