TRIAL Offer - The TKO Ed test drive

Never done business with TKO? Concerned about buying "used" equipment? Quite frankly, there are dozens of companies that report to be selling "refurbished" goods that do nothing more than wipe down the computer with a wet rag. TKO, however, isn't one of them. What some companies consider "refurbished," TKO ED tears down for scrap! TKOED has the highest standards in the entire country.

Still uncertain? Schools, School Districts, and non-profits can take a "test drive" on any of our desktop PCs!

Here's how simple our TRIAL OFFER is: Call us Toll Free at 877.219.6228 and tell us exactly what desktop computer you'd like to "test drive." Our salespeople will fax you a one-page document with the price of the unit you just selected, along with the cost of the freight to ship it to you. You simply sign it and fax it back. A few days later you receive your trial PC, exactly as you just ordered. Start using your computer, loading it up with whatever software you see fit. Then, at the end of the trial (or earlier), if you agree that the computer is everything we promised, you keep it and pay for it. If not - you return it. Our hope is that you fall in love with the value we provide and not only buy additional units from us, but you'll refer other organizations and/or individuals to the TKO ED program as a result.

Call us TOLL FREE at 877.219.6228 to "test drive" a PC.

PLEASE NOTE: Our TRIAL offer allows schools, school districts and other non-profits to test-drive one PC, but we do not currently offer a trial on other components such as a monitor, printer, or a laptop computer, nor do we allow end-users to take "test drives."

Needs Analysis - TKO ED will help you select the machine that best suits your needs

Believe it or not, many folks actually believe they need computers equipped with the latest and greatest Intel Pentium 4 processors inside and massive hard drives. The reality of the matter is that this is simply not true. The better majority of today's computer users run very basic software - Microsoft Office, Quickbooks, e-mailing, Internet browsing, etc. - you know the software. If you check the side of the software box, you'll notice that the manufacturer has provided you with the Minimum System Requirements that you'll need to run that software efficiently. Remember, these are the guys who wrote the software, so they aren't trying to pull a fast one on you. With the exception of a few software packages, it is rare to find any software that requires a Pentium 4 processor.

Let's put it another way - According to Microsoft, to install and use every feature of Microsoft Office Professional 2000 (2 CDs - including Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Access, and Outlook, etc.), the minimum processor you'll need in your computer is a Pentium 75MHz. Microsoft's website further goes on to state that you'll need at least 391MB of available hard drive space to load every program and every feature of Office Professional. In other words, you could load both disks 20 times before you would fill up an 8GB hard drive. Another way to look at that is that you could store over 2,000 songs or digital images on that 8GB hard drive, and still have enough room for Office Professional!

Let TKO ED help select the right computers for your situation. We'll work with you to select the computers that you need to run your current software and give you enough "horsepower" to keep you satisfied for years to come… without breaking the bank!

Drive Imaging

TKOED has the ability to clone the hard drives of the PCs we sell you with all the software you are legally licensed to use... and we can do so at NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE!

Our FREE offer to you goes something like this: If you fax us your P.O. for 20 or more of our professionally refurbished PCs, with written instructions that you need "drive cloning" and that you are asking TKO to clone software that you are legally licensed to use, we will ship you one of the units that you purchased, along with a return label inside the box. Upon receipt, you simply load it up exactly as you see fit - making sure all the appropriate software you need is loaded, all the settings are set properly, and all of the drivers are in their correct places. Then, you send it back to us (using the included label). Upon receipt back to our warehouse, we will begin cloning all of the computer hard drives EXACTLY as you had originally created.

NOTE: If we are pre-installing Windows on the machine, we will pre-install the "master," and you will load up the rest of the software, drivers, settings, etc. Then, upon receipt, we will "Sys Prep" the master and clone the rest of the computers. This way, Windows will work properly without you having to amend the registry on the PCs.

Call with any questions about the process OR about our requirements.
