You can't turn around these days without reading about computers being gi ven away.
At Quid'·nunc, we like our customers too much to do that. Why buy a computer from Quid'
·nunc? Four good reasons: quality, warranty, service and price.
Quid'·nunc quality begins with the parts we use in our computers. Every component we use has been discussed,
tested and passed by the technicians (we call 'em "techs," mostly because it sounds cool) who build the computer you'll buy. And then we keep looking at those parts; if we find a better one, we use that one.
Our parts are names that computer professionals all regard as the best you can buy. A Quid'·nunc-built computer will include parts from manufacturers like Sound Blaster,
ATI, Western Digital, Asus, Premio, Supra, 3Com, voodoo, AND, Intel and US Robotics. You'll see their names on the price quote we give you, because we're proud of the components we use. Built For Reliability
Anyone can build an inexpensive computer. A Quid'·nunc computer is reliable, which we think is much more important. For example, we don't use motherboards with built-in video
cards, sound cards and modems, even though they cost less. Our experience has shown them to be less reliable and more difficult to upgrade. Our goal is to send you home with your new computer and never have to bring it
back for repairs. That may make us the one place that actually tries to avoid making work for its tech staff.
The computers sold by Quid'·nunc are built by Quid'·nunc techs at Quid'·
nunc. The operating system and any other software delivered with your computer is installed by Quid'·nunc techs and then checked by Quid'·
nunc techs to ensure it runs properly. In fact, we run it for 24 hours, testing each component over and over again. Even the best manufacturer can produce a bad part, we catch most of this limited
number before they get out the door. When Bad Things Happen To Good Computers (And The People Who Buy Them)
We don't catch everything. And we're human. But if you find yourself facing the unusual
circumstance of having bought a computer with a problem, you're covered by our 2-year warranty. We can't be more straightforward than that. If you're thinking about buying a computer, we urge you to get a
copy of our warranty and check it out. Compare it to any other computer manufacturer or computer store. You'll begin to see how much Quid'·nunc stands behind its computers. Fast Service
Ain't nobody perfect, and as hard as we try to prevent it, sometimes things happen after our computers leave the store. Whatever it is, our service department can handle it.
Sometimes the problem can be resolved over the telephone, and our A+-certified techs are just the folks to do it. But if the problem requires you to bring in your Quid'·nunc-built computer, you'll
appreciate our priority service. Quid'·nunc computers are always next on the bench. That priority treatment means that often we can get your computer back to you on the same day, sometimes within
an hour, and, not so infrequently, while you wait. We can do this because we maintain a stock of replacement parts. No reason for your computer's downtime to cost you. The Price Is Right
My first job was stocking shelves for the grocer across the street from my childhood home. Its owner, Ed, had posted a sign above the meat case:
"I don't have any quarrel with those who sell for less. They ought to know what their stuff is worth."
We know what our stuff is worth, and we charge a very fair price. For that price, you get an exceptional computer and a piece of Quid'·nunc with its reputation for top-quality workmanship and
exceptional customer service. |
