As a computer 'user' rather than a computer 'expert' I have always gone into one of those large computer stores to purchase my next computer. Consequently I have always ended up having to fit what I wanted to do to the computer's capability. Not the best way of working!
Recently I needed to upgrade my machine again, but this time I read through the advice of several computer magazines. Computeractive, whom I have always trusted, has given several 'Best Buy' awards to some computers in the past few months. Having shopped around several of these recommended constructors by e-mail, Web, and telephone I contacted Braebo and discussed their Ares.
What a difference from previous PC shopping experiences! I was given helpful and knowledgeable advice, there are sales advisor very patiently talked through all the tasks and activities that I wanted to do with my PC, and indicated what I would need to put into the computer to achieve this.
To cut a long story short, the specification absolutely fitted my needs, the price was very reasonable (compared to other manufacturers), and the service that I received was at a level much higher than I had been given by any shop assistant or sales executive.
I was kept informed by e-mail on the construction of my machine, I was told when it was shipped, and it arrived the following day.
What a revelation --the look of the machine is great, it's processing speed and power is more than I have ever experienced, and most importantly it has been backed up by excellent after sales care and advice. Great instruction videos as well!
Would I recommend Braebo to others looking for a new computer? I certainly would!
