If you do a comparison of the smae parts they offer between them and other PC shops in Auckland they often come out cheaper . It looks expensive because they do tend to do only high end systems . They will sell you components though, including "lesser" stuff, but they won't sell the cheap crap brands . And good for them, too many "cheap and nasty" parts retailers around already . And they give EXCELLENT after sales service . |

| 477255 | 2006-08-09 05:00:00 | I highly recommend OEM Computers (http://www.oemcomputers.co.nz/) in Gt.South Road, Manukau. I've used them for a number of years and they've always treated me exceptionally well with good deals. Their range of upgrades and parts, though not always the cheapest, are very competitively priced. | braindead (1685) | ||

| 477257 | 2006-08-09 09:24:00 | I will also vote for OEM Computers, the 2 beige boxes I bought from them (P450 and P1000) are still going strong years down the line . Asus mobos seem to make the difference . And the pricing was good relative to others, not the cheapest, but real value for money . And remember, avoid firstin . co . nz (could not help getting this in, the swines still owe me a replacement PC or refund 5 months down the line) |

| 477258 | 2006-08-09 09:52:00 | I have not a lot to compare with, but have found Advanced Computers in Link Drive, Glenfield, very good . Ask for Karen (her name in Mandarin is a bit difficult - especially for a Scotsman !! ;) ) Misty :thumbs: |
