well it seems a bit faster. still not perfect. i have put my banshee card back in this pc just to get the smaller res on my old pc but now this pc buggers up and wont even show the "it is now safe to turn off your pc" message. when it used to auto turn off was great. now it doesnt anymore and i have to hold the power button.

Offering a copuple of suggestions from a buyer's point of view i'll have to say:
a) make the site more attention grabbing....looks too basic as of now
b) details mate details....for ex i had a look at your AMD extreme base unit..........i'd definitely like to know the brand of dvd re-writer/geforce card etc, brand and speed specs of ram, brand and rpm rating of hdd etc
c) mention anything worth mentioning(ie something you've done out of the ordinary).......for ex like water cooling was mentioned you should have mentioned the case is an antec super-lanboy......apart from looking good in specs it also gives confidence to the buyer that at time of delivery you wont give just any "stylish" case but only what you show in pic......same goes for all other components
d) remove the "A" before every spec ie dont write it as "A water cooled............." IMHO that looks very unprofessional.

One more suggestion is to remove the "computer base+ monitor category".............give the buyers the choice to select a monitor of their choice(something like you've done with OS) with "computer base" itself if required and quote additional amount for these.....this will increse your product portfolio as now your computer bases are not attached to one particular monitor.

Speaking of which, they sell mobiles too? I'm going to make a bit of a generalisation here, but computer specialists don't normally sell mobile phones as well, certainly not on the same site anyway. Surely you'd set up a seperate enterprise and site for that?

Uh why not?
I know directly of computer companies doing that here in NZ, fleshes out their catalogue, allows geek buyers to buy their phone and computer parts in one place. I don't see why more computer shops don't start web advertising mobiles and PC hardware.

When I was working for an importer/retailer here in NZ we certianly made that move on the website, offering everyine from handsets to pre pay top up cards. This worked out pretty well (The margins weren't half bad either )

@ gigs

I did say I was making a generalisation

Maybe it's a UK thing, but the idea is that if you want a PC, you go to a PC shop. If you want a mobile, you go to a mobile shop. It can be seen as a bad thing to be a jack of all trades, especially in the technology market.

I see where your coming from, but the idea is to appeal to the non-geek audience. Also, it's hard enough to persuade someone to buy a computer off you, never mind a mobile at the same time.

Hey, ive updated the website again:

2) Put makes and models for different components

Also created a new logo, but i want some feedback on it first
