Salutations, we are CyberGuild Technology Inc., a VAR with over 55 years
of collective computer (hardware & software) and management experience.
(Phone: 416-420-9225 Fax: 416-420-5924)
Our focus is "high quality at a reasonable price".
Services and products we provide:
- high end PC systems (486 systems, servers, ...)
- personal PC solutions (386 based systems)
- commercial software (huge selection)
- PC peripherals (printers, modems, memory)
- consumable (tapes, disks, ...)
- custom built programming solutions
Specific examples include:
(1) We noticed that memory for the OKIdata laser
printer was over-priced. We worked with a
reputable Canadian manufacturer to resolve this.
RESULT: we can add 2 Meg for under $200 (installed)
(versus $310-400 from other sources)
(2) We noticed that the sophisticated modem/BBS users
were getting a raw deal on high speed UARTs
(especially for use on COM1)
Using a chipset called 16550, your high speed modem
can run reliably at speeds over 9600 baud.
RESULT: we have a Canadian-built I/O card with the
equivalent of TWO 16550A chipsets, plus one
parallel port. The serial ports on this card can be
run as RS-232 or RS-422. (all with one VLSI chip)
For the astute user, the ports can be re-configured
to be null modems, etc using the jumpers.
All this for under $100.
(a good quality I/O card with 16550 chips is $140+)
(3) We noticed some dealers push a particular system.
This may make things simpler for them, but lowers
the options for the end-user.
RESULT: we have our 'best of breed' supplier, but we
will custom configure systems to your needs to get you
the best deal. There will always be the cut-throat
clone suppliers who can beat our price, but not the
same quality. We will also setup the system and
ensure you are comnfortable with it.
To guarantee the most current version of a product, at the best
price, our policy is to custom order your purchase.
We can fax you further information on these products,
or any other items you need.
For the I/O card in solution #2, we have uploaded a quick program that
tells you the chipsets you have today in your serial card. Feel free to
download it and try it. It is called SER_CHIP.ZIP
P.S. - Our products are not flimsy knock-offs aimed at the bargain
basement market. Our reputation as a VAR assumes that up-front quality
will keep you happier than visiting the repair shop.
