yeah so im still listening to coldplay - x & y, you should go and get it. today was busy as all hell, there were computer orders in places i didn’t know i had places, there was so many. i honestly don’t know how a little place like albury-wodonga go through so many computers and peripherals. seriously. i mean, sure we supply wagga and a few surrounding areas aswell, but that doesn’t mean it still is a massive amount of computers and parts going through all these places. anyway for those that wondered, the place i work at is Valcore Technology, they have a not very impressive site, but it is a site nonetheless, which i hear whispers around the warehouse that they plan to get a new one soon. best bit about me working there is that i can get computer parts at warehouse prices, which is good and cheap! i shall never go to enisun or albury computers again!

  1. You should do their website, let them know you’re a pro at it and offer a very acceptable rate. Oh and warehouse prices, that’s the same as wholesale, or is it cheaper again?

  2. not sure but i think wholesale prices are what the computer stores get it from us at, and i can get them at warehouse cost price which is cheaper still.

  9. But I get to hear all the latest on the brand new giga mega Athlon chipsets being released that are more powerful than God itself (which is Cell apparantly). I generally just respond with, “wow, so PC’s have finally caught up to MAC’s technologically huh?”. Which is a bad move because he then goes on about how he used a Apple machine in primary school and it was crap.

    Hey Tristan, you should be friends with him, you’re all computery and stuff. You can give him web ideas while he can give you copios cds on how he’s reverse engineered XP to make it 50 times more efficient or something like that.

    Comment by Sin Ogaris — 6/9/2005 @ 15:52

  10. give you copies of cds which have a reverse engineered XP on it*

    I have no idea how I screwed that sentence up so much there, probably due to frustration.

  11. i suppose i could Sin. or i could put my hand in a blender.

    i don’t usually talk about computers much outside of the work-related arena.

    once he fell alseep during physics. whenhe woke up he told us he stole 512 meg (a lot back then) or RAM from the school computers. one of the few times he was telling the truth actually :/. he got busted.

    Comment by t — 6/9/2005 @ 23:36

  12. No kidding, I believe he got busted because we were all talking about it in class (IT in fact) because we couldn’t care less if he got caught or not. I’m pretty surprised he managed to do it in a classroom full of 20 people, you’d think SOMEONE would have seen him.

  14. So what is everyone’s favourite computer shop in Albury Wodonga

    Enisuns prices are normally really good - just don’t let them touch anything or they’ll manage to break it somehow

    My GF bought her computer from Albury Computers and they only put half the screws in…

    I like BitsPC’s (Except I was sold a Samsung DVD Burner that produces more DVD coasters [which is my fault - I should have cheked out the reviews at cdfreak before I bought it])

    (anyone got any suggestions for another one - i was thinking about an el-cheapo lite on)

    Ashlin Computers - Gordon’s great there, they do excellent work(although you pay for it with their prices)

    Comment by anon — 7/4/2005 @ 17:24

  15. yes Enisuns really suck they ripped someone i know of real good i also agree Ashlin Computers are good

    but if you want cheap and good computers you need dragonhost there in holbruck but can get stuff to albury real easy they have a website its www.dragonhost.net.au

  18. Enisun are great. They fixed my computer after Albury Computers had stuffed it up worse than when I took it in there. The tech I spoke to on the phone was fantastic. Nice guys too.

    If enisun, bit n pcs and ashlin have all had trouble with you….. chances are it is you who is the problem annoyed :p

  19. Enisun, what can I say, they took my computer as i started getting all sorts of Stop Errors, they came and got it as I was unable to go anywhere, all in all 3 times they had a go, eventually Russell suggested formatting comp, he said it was software problems,
    To cut this short, they took my cash and didn’t fix it,
    put add in paper and a person from Wodonga picked it up, and found the problem, ( Motherboard Ram Slots) while at enisun a fan was noisy they replaced CPU fan while leaving a smaller fan near CPU that was noisy in, at tribunal, the Lady who decided outcome, really had no idea, one of their workers, I paid to be a witness, all he did was say a load of bull, and tried to intimidate me, Oh if Only I wasn’t in that condition, I would have loved to make sausages out of him,

    Anyway the lady said he was their expert, and naturally he was kissing buts for his job, from My Experience Never again Forget it; (at tribunal the daughter said that they wouldn’t serve me again), Wishful thinking. I Feel for Poor Russell though, he is more understanding, but in my Situation with all his knowledge, he still didn’t Pick up the problem, And although I told Russell over Phone not to allow Mark to work on my Computer again, He at least admitted that Mark did work on my Computer, I admire him for his honesty, got to give him that much,

    A person from Wodonga (won’t name) Although he is great with Computers, His word is Worthless, if he had backed me up as he said he would, I would have got my money back, This Person though Picked up problems in a couple hours,
    but in the 10 days that Enisun Or Now Leading edge, had it they managed to replace wrong fan, and formatted my computer .
    They had really no idea Even though I gave them 4 pages full of Stop Errors,
    Pity I couldn’t charge them for the 2 days it took reinstalling software,

    Just Now rang up Albury Computers, seems that they have a sort of Push button System, after a while, I got answering machine, to bad they just missed out on a Sale,
    Not that I know much about them,
    and so I did another search and found this site,
    Never heard of you blokes but I’m willing to talk,
    get back to me, if I haven’t called you:
