Hi there ..... A month or two back, some of you gave me lots of advice about upgrading. I was going to put a system together myself. One of the things that was holding me back was the thought of what might happen if the motherboard or processor failed early on. I've heard some real horror stories about unhelpful suppliers.
While reseaching, I came across PCSpecialists for the first time. They built me the identical spec. to the one I was going to make myself. Everything came exactly as ordered and I installed Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 really easily. It all worked 'out of the box'. There was excellent attention, friendly service and good communication. When I compared prices, it was more than worth the little extra to have them build, test and guarantee the hardware. And they don't make you buy Windows!!! They are happy to supply with no OS so you can do your own thing. It's wonderful to be able to talk to a human being quickly and easily and find that the person you get can answer the questions and help! I don't often come across that these days. Only slight hiccup was that the firewire card was not found. It had become unseated in its journey. I'm glad I took a look and pushed it back home before complaining.
