Anyone who owns one will tell you that having a computer can be a battle of wills at times. They crash, freeze, slow down to a crawl, or otherwise find ways to frustrate the most even keeled people.
Larry Klimek, of the recently opened Northstar Computers and Satellite, can sympathize. He has made it his lifeís work to help people overcome the computer blues in a variety of ways. Now he brings those years of experience in the field to North Branch.
Northstar is a complete sales and service business for computer owners. Computer enthusiasts can find just about anything they might need to keep their computers running in top form. Hard drives, memory, modems, power supplies and all manner of hardware are available.
For those not comfortable making repairs or installing components, Northstar also offers a complete service department, staffed Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and Klimek is ready to offer service five days a week if need be. For those unable to transport computers to the shop, Northstar also offers on-site service.
That service is not just for the casual user either. Northstar offers ìgenericî computer towers for both home and business use. Generics are very user friendly in that they do not require brand specific parts and service. Buyers will be safe in the knowledge that a computer purchased from Northstar comes with personal service only a phone call away.
Klimek also offers Keystroke point of sale (POS) systems for small and large businesses alike. Much more than a cash till, Keystroke tracks inventory, hot sales items, profits and more, while at the same time is inexpensive.
Aside from computer sales and service, Northstar offers more services. Just in time for football season, Northstar is a complete Dish Network satellite television sales and service outlet. Having installed and serviced thousands of satellite dishes over the years, potential buyers would be hard pressed to find more experience in the field locally.
Still want more? Klimek also owns and operates an internet service provider and can get you ìon the netî for less than $10 a month for dial-up service.
From POS to printer ink, Northstar has it covered, and at a reasonable cost. ìI want to give people a reason to stay here,î says Klimek. ìThat is why we offer competitive pricing like the Cities, but personal service that people expect in North Branch.î
Northstar is located at 6382 Main Street and is open Mon. - Fri. from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Call (651) 674-2403 for more information.
