Local Business needs me to build PCs!

Status
Not open for further replies.
So I have a local business in my town and they mainly use laptops(at their desk)and they are constantly having to get new ones because they just start to bog down and get really slow over the years. I told them that I never liked laptops because of how hot and loud they get and that I built my PC in 2014 and it still runs like new. So they asked me if I could build them some computers for their business. They mainly just web surf and use them for email. The laptops they buy run around $1,200 a piece. They're about 3 years old and they're wanting to replace them. What would be a solid build for just basic web browsing and emailing with a quick response time that would have a good life span? Any money I can shave off of that $1,200 laptop price would be awesome.
 
This advice below you have recieved at 1 of the other forums you have asked the same question seems pretty fair?

"If you really like to help them - let them go to Walmart / Costco / BestBuy. For mundane office tasks, you can't beat the price.

And the reasons their laptops get slow is not because they are laptops, but because of the "device" between the chair and the keyboard"

Also PCHF rules which you agreed to states.

15. PCHF can not and will not offer advice for business use or financial gain. PCHF only offers assistance for personal use.
