This requests a quote for a personal or server computer system. One will not be charged any fees for a quote.

When choosing this item one should add as much information as possible in comments during checkout about the desired system. One should also indicate if one wants a single operating system installed or desires a multi-boot PC with two or more bootable operating systems. Please note that we do not sell Microsoft operating systems. We will install Microsoft operating systems (a.k.a "Windows") upon request but the end-user must supply the media and legal license for any Microsoft operating system.

Typical options would be:

  • Operating System(s) (eComStation, FreeBSD, FreeDOS, Linux1, SCO OpenServer) or bare drive(s)
  • Case Type and Size - Full-tower, Mid-tower, Mini-tower, Standard Flat Desktop, 2U Rack, 3U Rack, 4U Rack
  • Memory (RAM) Amount
  • Hard Drive(s) - Type and Size
  • Media Drives - DVD, CD, Floppy
  • Multi-Card Reader
  • Monitor
  • Keyboard and/or pointing device (mouse, trackball)

Since we custom build all our computer systems to customer specifications there are simply too many options to put them all here. Anything not included in the selections on this page should be mentioned in the comments.

What Will It Cost?

The answer depends on what one wants and market prices when one is buying, that is why we offer this as a quote. A typical, single operating system, personal computer from us averages around $800 in cost. This average includes a keyboard, mouse and flat panel monitor. This average does not include shipping or taxes, if applicable. However, $800 is a rough average. A personal or small business desktop computer can cost slightly less than $500 to much more than $2000 depending on the options desired. While a high end, quad-CPU server can easily cost more than $5000. (FYI, a quad-CPU server can have up to four CPUs on the motherboard, each with 4 cores internally. A "core" is nearly, but not quite, equivalent to a single CPU.)

How Long Does This Take?

On average from quote request to order shipment takes about two calendar weeks. Certain options will cause this process to take longer, sometimes up to four calendar weeks. If payment by check is intended this will add a delay to the process while the check clears. If one needs to get a new computer in a hurry then state that in the comments. We will do all we can to speed up the process in that case but cannot guarantee faster service.

Be Sure to Read This:

When one goes to checkout with this item, choose the Check or money order payment option. DO NOT CHOOSE PAYPAL. Then include specific instructions for your quote request in the Order comments field.

Hard drive type helps determine motherboard for bare bones PC.

How many hard drives you want in this build.

RAM is optional on "bare bones" PC orders.

ECC or Non-ECC, for bare bones this helps determine motherboard.

DVD drives are SATA unless client requests otherwise.
