Bell Micro, and we have a well established reputation (user

Network and PC Tune-Up, Maintenance and Repair
Getting lots of life out of old
computers is something of a specialty at 2SS.Com. We're aided by years
of experience, and extensive company library of software dating from Windows™
3.1 and a substantial pro-bono experience at salvaging old computers for
re-use. 2SS.Com maintains what we call a 'Standard Install (*)'
for every version of windows from Windows™ 95 forward.
(*) A 2SS.Com Standard install includes the operating system, relevant
version of office, various other software (WinFax, ACT, Quicken®,
Acrobat®, PDF reDirect, Symantec™ SystemWorks™, etc.) as well as 20
to 50 customizations carefully selected and assembled to optimize our
client's use the PC it's implemented on.
As a cost-effective maintenance strategy for
selected clients, we occasionally use disk imaging technology to maintain on our server or
theirs, 'standard install' images of complete installations.
We also routinely make available the 'Ninite'
installation and update tool to help
individuals and network computers to keep a variety of standard software up
to date.
Internet
Connection
Acquisition, Installation & Upgrades
At 2SS.Com we always work to deliver complete solutions.
One important way deliver end-to-end results is routinely managing the
acquisition and installation of Internet connection services. We are
experienced with specifying, acquiring, configuring, installing and
troubleshooting hubs, switches, routers, DSL, Cable and T1 modems and firewalls.
Experience
-
Volunteer Center of Sacramento
A longtime and now former pro-bono client we installed the first
network server for the Volunteer Center and arranged for and
installed their DSL connection. That exercise proved
successful, but not until working for several hours on three
occasions with the local Internet provider who accidentally provided
us the wrong TCP/IP numbers. We finally figured out what had
happened and fully implemented high-speed Internet and E-mail
connectivity for the volunteer center for the first time in its
history.
A local Financial Consultant
Our longtime client was faced with a unilateral decision by Comcast®
to revise their multi-PC product offering, replacing the
existing service with the opportunity to rent a router and pay for
installation services of several hundred dollars. We acquired
a used router via eBay® for under $30 and implemented a permanent
low-cost solution for under $100 including installation services.
