Tell us the work, not the parts
The useful conversation is about what you do: the programs you use, how many at once, whether the machine travels, how long you want it to last. Turning that into a specification is our job and we are better at it than a filter on a website.
It also means we can tell you when a less expensive machine covers everything you have described, which is a sentence a comparison table will never produce.
What we notice that a spec sheet does not
Because the workshop is here, we see which machines come back and why. Which keyboards wear, which hinges crack, which designs make a routine repair expensive because the part is bonded to something else.
None of that is printed on a box, and none of it can be learned by a shop that never sees a machine again after it leaves.
Set up before you leave
A new computer is only useful once your files, accounts and programs are on it. That can be done here rather than becoming your weekend, and it is easier to do while the old machine is still in the room.
