THE BACKGROUND

Based in Austin, Texas, handtech.com began operations in the US in October 1996. We have more than 13,000 self-employed Technology Consultants across the US, a number that is increasing every month. Andrew Harris and Martin Slagter are the Founders of handtech.com. They were members of the founding team at Dell Computer Corporation, today one of the top 5 computer companies in the world. Their outstanding track record has attracted a superstar team and millions of dollars of investment to handtech.com. They are joined by Nathan Morton, Chairman of the Board and former CEO and Chairman of CompUSA. The company was originally funded by its founders and later managed a successful private placement with individual investors. In February 1999, Federated Department Stores acquired a stake in handtech.com and has recently increased their investment.

Over the past two years, handtech.com has continued to grow, evolve and flourish. As our team of Technology Consultants grows, so does our ability to reach more and more of the individuals and businesses who demand a smarter way to buy, sell and use PC-related technology products and services.

Why customers love us

"I wanted to thank you for your time and expert advice in helping me select the RIGHT computer for my startup business. Gateway, BestBuy, CompUSA, etc. were unable to provide me with EXACTLY what I was looking for. I did not feel they were looking out for my best interest and had to get their custom packages, which did not fit my requirements or pocketbook. You have saved me money, time, frustration and even educated me. Thanks for the wonderful service"
