As an independent computer consultant, I have many sources for systems, parts, and peripherals. While many off-the-shelf systems are very affordable these days, the custom option should always be investigated prior to making a 'buy' decision.
I market off-the-shelf brands as well as custom systems - including refurbished units that can save you a bunch of money.
I am located in northeast Wisconsin, so you'll always have someone local to turn to if things don't go as planned after the sale - better still, contact me before you buy with any questions. I support all purchases made at the TigerStore as well as any vendor featured on NEW Explorer.
