Twenty-nine years, for a start. We have been designing and building personal computers long before they were christened "PCs". IBM introduced their first PC in 1980. We had been building computers for five years by that time.

Over the last 29 years we have had the opportunity to examine nearly every computer ever invented, nearly all of which have had some glaring design flaws. Over the last two and a half decades many manufactures have whittled their design flaws down a bit, but now the big push, for nearly all computer manufactures, is to chop away on their cost to build. A little smaller power supply, a floppy disk drive from the lowest possible bidder, a modem that just makes the minimum specifications, all serve to lower many manufactures costs to build.

We wouldn't feel right if we used inferior components, or offered our clients anything but the very best. We spend a little more for the components that make up all of our computers, and it shows. Our computer systems run much longer and better than nearly all others.

Some computer builders stoop so low as to use used or known defective parts in their offerings. Every one of our computers are constructed from the best quality components available from the world's best vendors.
We cut no corners!

Care and attention to detail during the assembly and loading of a new computer makes a big difference. Each and every machine built in our laboratory is handcrafted and personally tested and calibrated.

A word from J.R:
Should you elect to purchase your next computer from my company, We'll build you the best computer on earth…You have my word on it! You'll get a computer that I would be proud to have on my own desk.

Testimonials

J.R. Whipple & Associates

We originally opened our business in 1975 in Santa Clara, California (The heart of Silicon Valley). We have designed and installed computers in some of the largest high-tech companies in the world.

In the 1970's J.R. Whipple worked with the founders of several high-tech companies, in the bay area, to help invent the personal computer.

In 1995 we relocated to Corning, so we could enjoy the clean air and beautiful scenery of this friendly small town in northern California. Our new laboratory continues the long tradition of producing the best computers on Earth.

Over the decades we have had untold thousands of clients, most of which are still our good customers. The following are some testimonials from a few or our customers:



For over ten years our company has been using a computer network designed and built by JR Whipple. The hardware has been amazingly reliable. JR also has written a lot of software routines that have helped us automate our operation and reduce the amount of staff required to run our business. The service and support provided by JR has been quick and accurate. I can whole heartedly recommend JR's products and services.

We are extremely pleased with our computer. As novice users JR took the time to explain the many choices available, then install and show us how to get online and the workings of our new computer. If we have a question or problem he is very prompt in answering our questions or coming to our home to fix the problem. He offers a 4 screen version that we love and would not want to do without.

I have been doing business with J.R. Whipple for about 15 years. He has built a number of computers for me, my family and friends. In fact we are currently putting together the specs for a new computer for my oldest daughter.

When evaluating the purchase of a new computer, one has to consider several things other than initial cost. Support is a major issue. Not only does JR build computers out of the best components but he provides the best support available. His council is only a phone call away. This support is not for the first 90 days or even the first year, it is provided for as long as you are his customer. That kind of support is not available anywhere else that I know of. To be able to call and talk to the person that built your computer, to discuss software installation and other issues that you may not be clear on, is very important.

In this day and age it is all to easy to buy computers that are constructed from "seconds", and out of date components, then when they break there is no support.

In my mind the smart buy is with J.R. Whipple. Over these 15 years he has never failed me.

I own and operate Forever Beautiful, the preeminent hair & nail care parlor in Northern California. The computer from J.R. Whipple & Associates runs my office. The Dual Drive Modules and Ultra-Windows offers the data security and ease of use I must have for my business.

I have been very pleased with my computer and the fact that someone is always very near to help me with a question or a problem. I always tell my clients about your company and they have also been pleased.

It is difficult to know where to begin when trying to describe J.R. Whipple and Associates, so I will begin with what they stand for:

VALUE
RELIABILITY
Uncompromised SERVICE
FREEDOM TO DO MORE
When I first met J.R. years ago, I was to say the least, computer challenged. It is safe to say that if you are a novice, you will not remain one after buying one of J.R.'s computers. Unlike most computer companies, the relationship does not end once you have purchased the computer.

These computers offer so much in that you will NEVER have more than a few seconds of downtime, should the unthinkable happen. J.R. has built reliability into his computers by offering what others do not, such as his dual hard drives and only the best components. Of course, anyone who has ever used his Ultra Windows will never want to be without it -period!   Imagine having all of the windows you need open available to you without the arduous task of minimizing, maximizing and trying to sort through a congested task bar!

J.R. has opened up a whole new world for our company by getting us connected to the internet and making sure we know how to do everything that makes us productive. His computers are the heart of our business and we could not and would not be without them or him.

Here is how I decided to go with the best: I asked my self how many hundreds of dollars I threw away on computer consultants to help me with a mass of merchandised machines that were barely adequate for my company's needs. When compared with the cost of J.R.'s computers and his lifetime support, the decision was easy. I have many years with him and he has never once left me out in the cold.

In Feb. of 2000, I purchased a Fireside Computer built by J.R. Whipple and Associates. I was reluctant at first due to a lack of promised support from companies that I purchased computers through in the past. In contrast to the big name outfits I bought from in the past, J.R. Whipple keeps his promises. His equipment is of excellent quality, he really knows his product, and he truly stands behind everything he sells. I used to be a timid about configuring my computer, but with many hours of the no cost telephone consulting that JR Whipple has provided me as he promised, I am no longer afraid to make the computer do what I need it to do. Without a doubt, integrity is the trademark of JR Whipple and Associates.

I would not think of going to anybody else for computer equipment. Your machine has held the test of time. durability and use. I tell anyone that brings up computer problems or needs about your company and how that you are always there when I need help. My system has performed beautifully for the last four years. The Ultra Windows display is really useful when I run quickbooks, Excell spread sheet and the calculator all at one time while invoicing. or Quickbooks and business connect with my bank while paying bills. The removable hard drives allows other members of the family to use the computer without worry about corrupting my business drives. Each person has their own drive. Backups are a breeze and retrieval is easy as changing the drives. Only had to do that once. Thanks for all the help getting around the internet, you have open up the world to us.

We are now on our second J.R. Whipple & Associates computer and for very good reasons. Support is readily available and can usually be accomplished over the phone. If a "house call" becomes necessary, J.R. is prompt and gets things done quickly. His products are reliable, AND UNIQUE! The dual hard drive system he has developed has saved our data more than once when the virus problem was rampant last year. The fix is unbelievably simple and he walked us through it by telephone in a matter of minutes! I wouldn't trust our files to any other system now that we have installed two of J.R.Whipple and Associates products.

I chose J.R. Whipple to build me a computer after researching the market in the Chico-Redding area. I knew what I wanted to have the computer do (i.e., hardware and software), and wanted the vendor to produce the computer, install the software, and demonstrate that the computer performs all required tasks.

I did not want any problems. I wanted a computer that would work flawlessly. It did just that. J.R. has provided good "over-the-phone" and email support when questions came up. He is amiable and knowledgeable, as well as reputable.

I would highly recommend him for any computer application. I will provide my email address upon request--through him--if you have any further questions I can answer directly.

-Jerald L. Ripley       Email: Upon request.

Twenty-nine years writing software and working with computers has given me the opportunity to design and construct many computer programs, and later, webpages. I have seen what works and what doesn't.

I have decades of experience designing and building everything from industrial controls to small and large webpages. If it has anything to do with electronics or computers, I have done it.

Should you elect to use my services for any of your needs, I will give you much more than your money's worth. That's my promise!









No mass-produced computers. We hand-craft each of our computer systems.
