"After years of frustration with MS WIndows, malware and crapware-laden Big Name PCs, I got a Magic Micro Barebones PC and installed Ubuntu Linux.
Five years later, it is still going strong with nary a glitch.
I recently ordered a second one for a friend (with a long sad tale of malware/Windows woes), and and repeated the Ubuntu setup for him. It is working great.
I give Magic Micro a thumbs-up rating.

"I bought a computer from them 3 yrs ago and needed help fixing a problem. The tech looked up my old order and helped me troubleshoot the problem and get an updated part. "
"My experience with them goes back years and they are consistent. The last order was received sooner than expected. I read that it takes a week to ship but I received within that week. It was a nice surprise since I informed that I may be out of town. All was in order before I even left. "
"ordered it online they called to make sure i knew what i was getting and built it and i had it the next week. unboxed it fired it up keyed in the windows key and it loaded everything and booted right up great system very quieteverything works and it is super fast"
"Well this company sucks. They sent me the wrong case. They won't respond to emails. They won't answer there phone. Took my money and ripped me off. Beware of these scammers "
"Their customer service is excellent. Didn't have case I ordered so they upgraded me to an epic case that my son loves. Upgraded the cpu and added a DVD burner. This company is where I'll be getting all my pc hardware from..."
"Customer service is very good. Elena was on top of my PC build. I was emailed the same day of ordering to review my order to make sure I did't leave any parts out that would be necessary to complete the build.
Thank you MagicMicro and Elena.
Mark"
"They know what they are doing. Use to use tiger but they whet down after sold."
"I have got the cumputer yet but the lady was good in helping me .."
"I was pleasantly surprised with this company, as most computer companies today are not very responsive in person. Especially when purchasing a lower cost computer system, most companies want you to talk via email, and don't answer their phones when help is desired or necessary. MagicMicro answers their phones with real people, and makes sure you don't have to wait on hold forever for tech support. When I buy a computer, this is the most important part to me, SUPPORT, real people support. Thanks MagicMicro, when I buy again, I'll be back with you..."
"I got a custom built PC. Elena contacted me because I picked a configuration where there were some incompatibilities. She walked me through what I'd have to upgrade or downgrade in order to make things work. Once we got that squared away, they built the PC, tested it out and installed Windows within 5 days and shipped it. I got it via UPS on the day promised. It works wonderfully!"
"Easy to order, competiveley priced with numerous options makes it the best place to buy your new computer. Get what you want not what the big computer corporations say you need. They sell you their so called "Top of the line model." At a premium price just to see them advertise a newer better one before your done creating your logon account. Whether you want to start basic and build up over time or buy a version that is "obsolete" proof for a number of years, you can do it all. Also not to add sugar to the already sweet deal but the support staff are awesome to! (Thanks Elena!!) So buy an already obsolete big corp system or buy something "Magic", and no I am not a paid endoser of the product. The quality and service they have was payment enough and they are more than deserving of this review."
"I purchased a tower well over 4 years ago and am still delighted. Just bought a 17 inch laptop and it could not look any more professional. Great value. The gaming ability is awesome and I still really appreciate the old windows 7. Am able to upgrade if it ever needs to be... Thank you all at MagicMicro."
"Order was to spec and has worked splendidly. I would suggest this vendor for anyone looking to have a PC made without doing the work themselves."
"I ordered four barebones systems for my company. Two each with different processor and memory specs. Since I had left out the optical drives and OS, MagicMicro took the time to give me a courtesy call to make sure I was getting everything that I needed but they didn't try to make any "hard-sells." The machines were assembled and shipped in a timely manner and arrived just as ordered. My experience with MagicMicro has been very good on my first order and I am likely to order from them again."
