Your computer supplier is twenty minutes away.

We're an independent shop in Fairport, NY, and we've spent more than thirty years building fully tested workstations and servers — including for university research groups and government at the town, city, county, and state level. Quote from your spec sheet or RFQ, visit the bench where it's built, and call the person who built it when you need something.

Who this page is for

Local government and academic buyers have a specific problem: the machine has to do one particular job, and the catalog vendors only sell tiers. That's the gap we fill. If you're buying for any of these, we're set up for it.

University research groups

Lab workstations, GPU systems, and servers spec'd to the workload — often around accelerators the department already bought on its own manufacturer agreement.

County & municipal offices

Everyday desktops and specialized machines for local government, quoted through your purchasing process and supported in person.

New York State offices

Custom builds for state offices and programs across the region, delivered or shipped and backed by the same warranty and support.

School & district IT

Machines for labs, media rooms, and administrative offices — built to last a replacement cycle and serviceable when something goes wrong.

Hospitals & medical research

Workstations for imaging, analysis, and research groups, with the confidentiality and data-handling practices that environment requires.

Libraries & public facilities

Public-access machines, kiosks, and signage systems that need to run all day, quietly, without a technician standing by.

What being local actually gets you

Not a sales pitch about "partnership" — four specific things a distant reseller can't do.

Stand at the bench

Come see where your systems are assembled and tested. For a purchasing office evaluating a vendor, twenty minutes in the shop settles more questions than any brochure.

A machine down is a drive, not a ticket

If something fails, it comes back to a bench in Fairport instead of into a return-authorization queue. We can often have hands on it the same week.

Delivery and setup in person

Systems delivered and set up on site around the county, rather than left on a loading dock in a stack of boxes.

The same people, for years

Small fixed team. The person who quoted your last order is the person who answers when you call about the next one, which is how institutional knowledge about your setup actually survives.

Confidentiality, in writing

Send us your NDA and we'll sign it before we see anything sensitive — a spec, a workload description, or what the machine is actually for. We've worked under NDA for years, and it doesn't slow a quote down.

We don't name customers. No logo wall, no case studies, no "trusted by" strip anywhere on this site. If that's frustrating while you're evaluating us, it's also exactly what you'd want us saying about you.

On repairs and upgrades, you decide what happens to the drives — left untouched, pulled and returned to you, or wiped to your standard. We follow your instruction and confirm it back in writing.

“Fully tested” means we tested it

New parts fail. Not often, but often enough that shipping on the assumption they work is how a department loses a week of lab time. Every system is assembled by hand here and put through this first.

Motherboard bundles
Fully tested motherboard bundles. Processor, board, memory, and storage assembled and firmware-updated as one unit, then tested together — a board that posts alone and a board that posts with your exact CPU and memory are two different claims.
Memory
Fully tested memory. Tested for errors across its full installed capacity, in the board it will actually ship in. Bad memory is the failure that looks like a hundred other failures, so we rule it out first.
Graphics & accelerators
Stress-tested GPUs. Run under sustained load until they're hot and staying hot — not powered on, checked for a display signal, and boxed. Cards your department supplies get tested exactly the same way.
The whole system
Burn-in under load. The finished machine runs under sustained full load so thermals, power delivery, and stability are proven together, not component by component.

Getting a quote

Most requests reach us as a document that already exists — send it as-is.

Already have a spec or RFQ?

Upload the spec sheet, parts list, bid packet, or RFQ on the quote request page and we'll price it as written, including hardware we don't normally stock.

No document yet?

Type the components straight into the same form, or call and describe the job. If you'd rather work from a starting point, the workstation and AI system pages lay out the usual shapes.

Supplying your own GPUs?

Common for departments buying on a manufacturer agreement. Tell us the model and count on the quote form and we'll build and test around them.

Purchasing paperwork

Tell us what your office needs — a formal quote on letterhead, specific vendor forms, a reference number on every page — and we'll do it. Ask and we'll complete what's required.

Common questions

Can we visit the shop and see where the machines are built?
Yes, and public-sector buyers often do. We're at 1387 Fairport Rd, Suite 900J, Fairport, NY 14450, generally open Monday–Friday 9:00–5:30 and often available weekends. Call (585) 388-8780 first so the right person is there. Being able to stand at the bench where your systems are assembled and tested is a real advantage of buying locally.
Do you work with university departments?
Yes. Research groups and academic departments are a regular part of our work — lab workstations, GPU systems, and servers spec'd to a particular workload rather than a catalog tier. Departments frequently supply their own accelerators through a manufacturer agreement, and we build around them.
What kind of organizations have you built for?
Over more than thirty years we've supplied systems to government at the town, city, county, and state level, to university research groups, and to federal research agencies, national laboratories, and defense research programs. We deliberately don't name them — several of those engagements are covered by confidentiality agreements, and we extend the same discretion to every customer. If a named reference is a hard requirement for your process, ask us and we'll tell you honestly what we can and can't provide.
Will you sign a non-disclosure agreement?
Yes. Send us your NDA and we'll sign it before we see anything sensitive. We don't publish customer names or project details for any customer, public sector or otherwise.
Can you quote from a spec sheet, RFQ, or bid packet?
Yes — send the document as it already exists through the quote request page and we'll price it as written, including hardware we don't normally stock. If a line item is discontinued or a poor fit for the workload, we'll say so and propose an alternative rather than substituting it quietly.
What does “fully tested” mean?
Motherboard bundles are assembled, firmware-updated, and tested as one unit. Memory is tested for errors across its full installed capacity. GPUs are stress-tested under sustained load rather than checked for a display signal. Then the finished machine burns in under full load before it ships.
What areas do you serve?
The greater Rochester area and Monroe County — Fairport, Pittsford, Penfield, Webster, Victor, Brighton, Henrietta, Greece, Gates, Hilton and surrounding towns — for pickup, delivery, and in-person support, plus New York State more broadly. We also ship anywhere in the continental US.
We're a federal agency, not local. Is this the right page?
The work is the same, but the public-sector supplier page is written for you — it covers confidentiality, testing, and how to send a spec without assuming you can drive here.

Send the spec, or come see the bench.

Free quotes, no obligation, and a shop you can actually drive to. If confidentiality needs to be in place first, say so and we'll sign your NDA before you send anything.
