Computer Purchases - Vendor Recommendations
Recommendations
- Our experience is that both Apple and Dell computers work well in our networked environment
- Procurement Services negotiates contracts with both Dell and Apple so these purchases do not have to go through the normal bidding process
- Students, faculty, and staff benefit due to discounts negotiated by Procurement with Apple and Dell
- You may purchase a computer from other vendors, and you may pay a lower initial cost, but our experience is that purchasing from Dell or Apple will save you money over time
- JMU PC Services is authorized to perform warranty work on both Dell and Apple computers
- This warranty service for Apple and Dell is available for both JMU and personally-owned (students, faculty, and staff) computers
