Backup Solutions:

External Harddrives are the most economical means to backup your data. Although there are many companies out there selling these type of drives, I have found that Apricorn's EZ BUS DTC drive tends to be more reliable than others due to their active cooling system. Unlike many other chassis, Apricorn has designed theirs with a fan that is located beneath the drive with a vent above and below the fan, creating a constant airflow around the drive. I have seen fanless enclosures burn up after less than four months of continuous usage, while I have been using Apricorn's EZ BUS DTC 3.5" drives for over a year without failure. Visit Apricorn's website by clicking on their icon for a full list of products that they sell or contact Chris Sothras at 800-458-5448 Ext. 441 to purchase products. Mention that you found out about them through my website and Chris will give you a discount from their typical pricing.

Accessory Items:

Need a case?  Whether it is for your computer, MP3 Player, CDs/DVDs and so forth, Case Logic has a great line of casual and executive style cases.  Need something that you don't see on their website?  I've got a friend who works for CaseLogic... if it could be a viable product, they'll design something and add it to their product line.  Let me know and I'll put you in touch with him.

Hardware and Software Purchases:

Want to buy your hardware and / or software for a good price that rivals most mail-order houses but have a specific contact to work with for all of your purchases? I have been working with Zones exclusively for the last three years and have established an excellent working relationship with my sales-rep, Jason Gain. He has offered to "hook you up" and take care of your technology needs. Give him a call at 800-706-0056 Ext. 3930 and tell him that you heard of him through me.
