Farewell old friend...
It is with some sadness that we prepare to say
goodbye to arguably one of Microsoft's best ever
products - the Windows XP operating system.
Microsoft have confirmed that they are withdrawing the
sale of the operating system with effect from 1st July
2008, although we will continue to supply systems with
XP pre-installed for as long as our own suppliers have stocks available.
Support for the product will remain until April 2014,
subject to the installation of Service Pack 3 which was
released in April 2008.

New website
We've redesigned our main website to make it easier
for customers to find what they're looking for -
very little information is is now more than a click away.
We've also
introduced online pricing so customer can clearly see our
charges before contacting us and are therefore fully aware
of how competitive our pricing structure is.

Better
desktop systems
Due to massive price-drops by the two big processor manufacturers,
Intel and AMD, we are now offering dual-core processors
as our entry-level products. Combined with a massive 1Gb of memory, 160Gb of hard disk storage space
and a high-speed dual-layer multi-format DVD writer it makes
our systems even better value than before!

Windows
XP
There was some excitement in our offices recently when Microsoft
announced they would be extending the availability of Windows
XP to system builders until at least June 2008.
Although
Windows Vista has been available since January 2007, we
have seen very little requirement for it from our customers
due to reports of incompatibilities and other issues in
the media.
Whilst high-street
retailers are shying away from supply XP-based systems,
we are still proud to be able to offer this operating system
as the standard choice on all our desktop systems, and still
have access to a number of laptop systems running Windows
XP also.
