Buying a Laptop

 

Choosing a new laptop is much harder than it should be. Every major brand has multiple product lines with overlapping prices, features, and options.  Please submit a ticket to CAHNRS IT if you would like one of our technicians to answer questions, help configure a laptop of your choice,  assist in locating a vendor, and/or generate a quote for purchase.
