| Are we Biased? |
You will see a lot of references to Linux at our site, as it is the future of PC's (sorry Microsoft!), but we realize that it is not for everyone. All systems are available with MS Windows, or Linux

Location Change!
I am no longer located at 12400B Blue Ridge. Until I find a suitable location, I will be working from my home (address in left-hand column). I may end up working from home all summer...
In the meantime, nothing else has changed, everyone is welcome to come and see me at home.
Getting to my house is easy, I'm half-a-dozen houses west of Blue Ridge on 97th St. That's a right-turn if you're coming from Bannister, or a left-turn if you're coming from 470/Grandview.
I will be forwarding the phone to my home number, or changing the home number to the (763-4300) business number.
More info later...

| 2005-12-03 - New Systems, new prices... | | Posted by admin. | 
Systems Page Updated!
I have finally taken the time to change the current base systems that are available, and these will change soon, as well, since AMD is planning more price drops in the weeks ahead...
The Durons are still around (for now), though Sempron64's have a better price/performance ratio. Since the Sempron64's are out now, I no longer build the 32-bit versions. I prefer the 256k level 2 cache models. The Duron CPU's have 64k level 2 cache, and are comparable to the Intel Celeron. The 64-bit Sempron64 2800+ runs at 1.6Ghz, but don't let that fool you, these babies will SMOKE a Celeron 2800. When compared to the Intel Celeron's , (and even the P4's), these new AMD CPU's really shine, at a lower price point to boot...
The Athlon64 is now the defacto choice for discerning gamers. Microsoft has (finally) released Windows XP 64-Bit Edition for Extended Systems (that's a mouthful), but most (XP) users still run 32-bit XP. For anyone interested, I will install the BETA version of this, on request, on any Sempron64/Athlonn64 system I build. I have installed it several times, and it's rock solid, with 64-bit drivers available now for nVidia and ATI video cards.
Of course I advise installing 64-bit Mandriva Linux (which has been available for over 2 years) on these machines, or we can setup a dual boot, with both. Keep in mind that you can run ANY Operating System that you like, 64-bit or 32-bit, Windows (any version) or Linux. The Sempron64/Athlon64 gives you a lot of flexibility!
The days of 32-bit PC's are numbered, get your 64-bit PC today!

Uh, No! You may have noticed that there isn't a Login box anymore!
I had to move this site on short notice almost 2 years ago. I barely got the database backed up in time. For now, this site is static, which is why I haven't updated it for nearly a year. Static pages are old-school, and very labor intensive. At least it's still using Cascading Style Sheets, which is now the one easy change I can make that affects the whole site with a single edit. I may be making a change to the old LAMP scripts, but nothing major, really, just the overall look'n'feel. | |
