Evesham C535SR

Advantages: Excellent Customer Support
Disadvantages: Slightly pricy but worth it

...A brief history as to why Evesham are a Top Class Company (and, No, I don't work for them!) I first bought a PC in 1996 after studying the PC magazines for months. I chose a (then) Evesham Vale Platinum TX with a Pentiun 233MMX chip. I've had a few problems with it (the only hardware fault being a graphics card which was replaced without quibble). They have NEVER refused to help with technical queries or even with general questions about my PC. I have never been fobbed-off or referred to a third-party. Their customer service so far has been faultless. By the way, the PC is STILL working faultlessly (although by modern standards it is a bit pedestrian). I have been so pleased with the PC and the company's service that in late 2000 I bought a second PC from Evesham - an Origin PC with AMD Duron 650 processor. That has also worked... Read review

Advantages: A Good Spec, Good Components, Good price
Disadvantages: None

...I purchased a Vale Athlon TNT2 with a 550MHz CPU about 4 months 5 months ago. The base level spec has now been upgraded to a 600 MHz I believe although the remaining spec is pretty similar. Evesham concentrate on providing good quality no fuss components without lots of add on gimmicks. This machine comes with a 20Gb Ultra DMA66 Hard Drive, 128Mb SDRAM 32Mb TNT2 M64 Video Card, 56K PCI modem and includes an internal 100Mb Zip. Included is free lifetime telephone support and 2 years on site Maintenance (parts and labour). There are no large software bundles included but it does inclue free GoBack software for disk tracking (see comments on GoBack under Software) This is my second Evesham PC and so far I haven't been disapointed....
