Windows-based Servers

We are value-added suppliers of IBM and HP tower and blade servers. IBM and HP provide excellent tower and blade computer hardware systems, combined with excellent on-site service with parts. We support Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 for Small Business Server (SBS) 2003, and are currently evaluating and will be supporting Windows Server 2008 (the official name of the codenamed-project 'Longhorn'. We specialize in Windows Small Business Server (SBS) 2003 implementations.

Desktop and Laptop / Notebook Computers

We are value-added suppliers of IBM and HP desktops, although we usually recommend custom, hand built PCs, so both we and our customers know exactly what parts go into each and every system we ship - something no large vendor can offer. And remember, computers are a lot like automobiles: you could have two cars of equal specs, and one could be on the road years after the other has hit the trash pile. What's INSIDE the computer counts!!

We are Preferred Partners with Toshiba and offer their full line of business notebook computers, including their Tecra and Portege lines. 123 Technology's Toshiba laptop offerings have incredible new features, including:

The latest Intel Centrino Duo mobile technologies
up to 120GB Serial ATA (S-ATA) hard drives
DVD SuperMulti optical drives that support 11 DVD formats, including dual-sided formats
Gigabit Ethernet connections
Built-in Bluetooth communications
HDD, LCD Panel, and LCD Inverter Shock Absorber designs
HDD protection including 3D Accelerometer protection that actually detects motion and secures the hard drive instantly before impact
Spill-resistant keyboard
Built-in fingerprint reader security

Toshiba doesn't discount their business laptops like the Tecra and Portege. You can get their retail-focused Satellite line at local computer stores, but through 123 Technology you can step WAY UP to a Tecra and Portege for nearly the same price, and get all of the above, and more. Well worth it!

In addition, Toshiba offers a laptop trade-in program, under which they'll give you CASH for your older laptops! Call us for details.

Windows XP Preinstalled

Almost all desktop and laptop notebook computer systems sold both at retail and directly through the major manufacturers come pre-installed with one of the five flavors of the Windows Vista Operating System. 123 Technology is not recommending use of Vista due to the extraordinary hardware requirements and continued conflicts with third-party hardware drivers and software packages. We will re-evaluate our stance once Vista Service Pack 1, expected by the end of 2007, has shipped. In the mean time, 123 Technology is one of the few resources for you to get desktop and notebook computer system pre-installed with Windows XP Home or Windows XP Professional.
