5/5

posted Dec-14-2006
My purchase from MDG Computers has been pretty much the opposite of most folks on here, so far.
I ordered an MDG 3000TV online and was contacted by a sales representative. She was very helpful, describing a package that was best suited to my needs according to my budget.
It took just a day to get my credit approved and then another day to get the order processed (there was a weekend in between). Not only did my computer system arrive on time as promised, it arrived a day earlier than originally expected.
When I opened up the package, I found that the system was beyond my expectation! I received the 3000TV with the Intel chip as promised however, there were a few things that seemed different than my order.
I was told I would receive a simple LCD 19" monitor, and, lo-and-behold, I received a WIDESCREEN 19" monitor...a nice surprise. Next, I was surprised that I didn't receive the XP Home Edition as promised...I received the XP Media Centre Edition instead. That made me smile. I also received a very attractive bundle of 2006 Microsoft Works software, a very nice Lexmark multi-purpose printer, a surround sound system with sub-woofer and a few other pieces of software and hardware upgrades that I wasn't expecting based on the initial order. They even threw in a digital camera/web cam. A 3 year warranty was included in my price of under $1500.
All the equipment appears to be of very high quality, and so far I'm very satisfied.
In the past I've purchased Gateway (with horrible tales to tell), Dell (3 for my business out of which one was a dud), and now MDG.
In my opinion, there's always a chance for error. According to published information, MDG has sold over 1 million computers in Canada, so the odds are good that a few will have problems. I also appreciate buying from a Canadian company, unlike most high profile manufacturers and dealers.
My systems still very new, so I guess only time will tell as to how I rate or appreciate my MDG, although, so far, they get a "Thumbs Up".
