Default Howdy, from Warcom!

Hi Guys!

I'd like to introduce myself as the Managing Director of Warcom.

Along with my Team - Ashley, Danny and Adam (who will be along shortly).


I'll do my best to give the Mactalk community the best pricing we possibly can do, accompanied with warcoms high levels of service.

To get things started, whilst warcom remains as a MacTalk sponsor, we'll be doing free delivery on all DrayTek orders.

In order do secure free delivery, all you need is mention you are a MacTalk member when placing the order, along with your username in the questions asked box (final page of our checkout).

If we happen to charge your for delivery accidently, just give us ahoy, and we'll remove it once the order is good to go.

Nice to meet you all!


Cheers,
Paul

I've dealt with Warcom in the past, and can highly recommend them for great customer service.

Yeah me too - I bought a VIA EPIA off Warcom when they were first released, some years ago - their service was great.

Same here a V8000 IIRC (which then died 2 years later due to overheating issues >.<)

Warcom FTW.

hahaha, the bottle openers!

Those things are still booting out the door.

And every time my mates come over for a drink; or ten, the bottle magically disappear..

Cheeky buggers.

nb: We have loads of bottle openers in stock, in pink, yellow & white.

Bought my first Draytek router from Paul when he was still operating out of his folks place about five years ago (which will appear on the for sale forums shortly) - and bought another one from him yesterday. Good prices, good proactive service and always pleasant to deal with. Would heartily recommend.

Sarcastic suggestion: give MacTalk members a free GPS unit if they're going to pickup their purchases. Only 4,000 turns to go once you reach Roxburgh Park.

Hi there, Paul.

I'm about to churn my ADSL to Internode, and was looking to update my old modem/router, also to better integrate VOIP. I currently run a Linksys 3102 for VOIP with MNF, but the echo is driving me insane. I have an Airport Extreme in bridge mode attached to the LAN port of the Linksys (which also functions as router).

Any suggestions?

In my internet-based research so far, I seem to have narrowed it down to the new Billion VNPX (not yet available thru 'Node) or the Draytek 2820VN.

Don't forget to checkout our Internode ISP Deals: warcom.com.au: Special Internet Deals before you do, we'll save you more $$.

Buy the DrayTek 2820VN - you'll love it.

It's by far and away the best unit on the market.

And did I mention it's white, so it will match all your funky white Apple stuff!!

Accordingly to data I've received, we are one of the biggest Wacom resellers in Australia.

Especially on this bad boy: warcom.com.au: (ON SPECIAL) wacom Cintiq 21UX 21.3" TFT LCD Pen Display : Buy online at Warcom

More than happy to do you a deal on Wacom gear.

Shoot us an email !

It basically cuts the paper and folds it

I'll see if I can get someone to knock up a video for it!

It's nothing earth shattering, just a funky gadget.
