Why Spartan?

 

 

 

Sensibility!

Spartan makes sense!  Spartan laptops have been trusted since 1992 as the premiere laptop by users at NASA, MIT, and Merrill Lynch, the military, and others.  Spartan laptops are built with the highest rated components.  Spartan laptops are known for quality and have the lowest failure rates in the industry.  Service turnarounds average 4 times faster than any big name brand.  That's why Spartans are found in the most demanding environments on earth, wherever time and data are precious.  You would think that quality comes with a hefty price tag.  Not so.  There is no better laptop value anywhere.  Spartan gives the same attention to their new line of desktops, gamer towers, and servers.

 

Reliability!

The major brands typically work to get the best price on cases, motherboards, LCD panels, RAM, hard drives and other components.  This leaves the manufacturer little room for quality. Their budgets are therefore usually focused more on clever, polished marketing at the expense of quality.

 

Spartan follows a different path.  They focus on including the highest-quality components, and then let that quality speak for itself.  By embracing this philosophy,  Spartan has become known for high quality and high customer satisfaction.  One of the best measures of quality is durability.  Durability is reflected in the average failure rates, of which Spartan has the lowest in the industry.

Dependability

The big-names manufacturers move like dinosaurs when you place an order!  For example: when you order a big-name laptop with anything but the default configuration the average time before the order is shipped is two to three weeks - sometimes longer.  With Spartan the average turnaround time for an order is under three days!

 

The same applies for turnarounds in the rare instance where service is necessary.  The average turnaround time for repairs or upgrades from Dell, for example, is three to five weeks.   Spartan boasts an average turnaround time of less than three days from the time they receive your Spartan computer.

 

Domestic Manufacturing; Domestic Support

Spartan computers are manufactured in the United States.  In the unlikely event that service or other technical support is required for your Spartan computer both are provided from within the United States.  Spartan does not off-shore any manufacturing or technical support services.  Repairs are made from the same high quality components used in the original manufacture.

 

Shouldn’t your next computer be a Spartan?

At Spartan we want you to be totally satisfied with your new Spartan.  Models and prices change each month as new features are added to the models.  At the time of purchase we verify that the model and configuration is still available and will suit your needs.  We may offer alternatives to get you the best computer at a most reasonable price.

 

Each Spartan you purchase is configured to your specification and shipped directly from the factory to FunKyLAN.  We then again verify the configuration and assist as required in personalizing your new computer.  This personal attention to your needs makes FunKyLAN different than most retail computer stores or web based computer sales companies.  

 

You get attention to detail; factory-direct pricing; personal assistance.   What more can you want?

Your current computer will need either Microsoft Excel from one of the Microsoft Office packages or the Excel Viewer to view the pricing and configuration spreadsheets.  If you do not have either you may download the Excel Viewer free from Microsoft.
