Tired of paying for good looking new computers built out of the cheapest and cheesiest components available?
Tired of having to spend hours configuring your new computer so it runs its fastest and runs stably?
Tired of new computers that are hard to maintain and hard to back up?
Tired of all the “crap ware” that comes on a new computer?
Here at Planning/Communications we’ve custom–built over 65 customized and optimized Windows 7 and Windows XP personal computers using only the best components for your price range. We build all the computers we use here, including the one at the right with two mobile racks and two DVD drives.
We conduct an initial free consultation to learn how you plan to use the computer so we can propose one that is right for you. We don’t want our customers wasting money on expensive computers they don’t really need.
And we reduce your total cost of ownership by configuring your computer for optimum stable performance :
Hard drive partitioned into a C (for your operating system and applications) and D drive (for your data) — making it easy to back up your data and keep it safe if you ever have to wipe Windows clean or reformat your C drive
Alternatively we can customize your computer with a solid state drive (SSD) as your C drive and a conventional hard drive as your D drive for data — reducing the boot time to 30 seconds or less and speeding up your computer like you wouldn't believe
Windows 7 configured for safe, stable, high speed computing with the Windows kernel stored in RAM and unneeded, memory–hungry services turned off
We build computers using only high quality, affordable components like mainboards from Asus and video cards from ATI. Save money with an AMD CPU that performs just as well, or better, than the comparable Intel CPU — for a lot less.
The best fail safe protection: If you wish, we use internal mobile racks for your hard drive and a removable hard drive for easy cloning of your hard drive (the best back up method) that lets you store your back up off site for surefire safety.
