Founded 16 years ago, MidWest Micro has established itself as a leader in the computer industry. In fact, we've earned more than 30 awards in the past seven years alone—including 17 Computer Shopper "Best Buy" Awards.

And in that tradition, we're also earning a reputation for producing some of the best desktops on the market. Just take a look at what reviewers for the top PC magazines are saying about our systems...

"[The Office Pro PRO-300 is] superfast, with good speakers and monitor�"

"This $2169 home-and-office machine put together a terrific PC WorldBench score of 269, without skimping on any of the amenities that home users want."

"There's a lot to like about this attractive midtower�"

"MidWest Micro did a nice job on the manuals, with useful illustrations, step-by-step upgrade procedures, and ergonomic tips for new users."

"�the fastest-machine-we've-ever-tested�"

"The MidWest Micro PRH-300 [Multimedia Pro PC delivers] blazing multimedia performance that bests the previous record holder, Gateway's 300-MHz G6-300XL."

"�the [MidWest Micro] PRH-300 is priced considerably lower than many systems less well equipped, [including] the�Gateway G6-300XL."

"The PRH-300 is built around Intel's latest high-performance hardware, including a 300-MHz Pentium II processor (with its on-board 512KB second-level cache) and 440LX chipset. The 440LX lets the system support AGP (Intel's Accelerated Graphics Port) for fast graphics, synchronous DRAM for improved memory access, and Ultra DMA for superfast disk access."

"The [MidWest Micro] PRH-300's performance scores surpassed those of Gateway's similarly equipped G6-300XL by more than 5 percent. The speed advantage is due mainly to the PRH-300's faster 24x max CD-ROM drive (the G6-300XL included a slower, first-generation DVD-ROM drive) and fast hard drive."

"The PRH-300 shines when it comes to running multimedia titles. The 24x CD-ROM drive runs video clips without missing a beat. Graphics are excellent: MidWest Micro's sharp 17-inch monitor is a good match for the high-end ATI graphics card. And the sound system, an Ensoniq PCI audio card paired with three-piece Altec Lansing ACS-400 speakers, is great for both games and audio CDs."

"Celebrating PC Quality...MidWest Micro commemorates 15 years by giving direct customers the gift of a great system."

"MidWest Micro�s MWA-200-T 15th Anniversary PC is...packed with component extras, and it performs at the top of its class."

"MidWest Micro has also managed to wrestle some additional performance from the [Quantum Ultra DMA/33.6 GB] drive. The drive�s score of 1,230 in the Business Disk WinMark 97 test is nearly double what our benchmark system [Micron Millennia] was able to achieve."

"ATI�s All-in-Wonder graphics/video card...is not only a competent performer, but...the quality of the images produced was excellent and the motion was smooth."

"[MidWest Micro] operates a Web site with hardware-driver updates and software utilities. We spent some time browsing through the online Glossary of Terms. It�s a great place for a novice owner (or even a rusty veteran) to get up to speed with computer jargon. Overall, it�s one of the better PC Web sites we�ve visited."

"...the MWA-200-T [15th Anniversary PC] system seems more than capable of handling SOHO, home and multimedia computing, or almost any other task we could throw at it."

"Thanks to the All-in-Wonder card, you can use the 15th Anniversary PC as the center of a home entertainment system."

"You�ll be happy to note that despite the glittering array of extras, the 15th Anniversary edition is no performance slouch...it is comfortably in the upper range of 200-Mhz Pentium systems."

"With its high-end multimedia features and excellent performance, the 15th Anniversary PC can satisfy your family�s computing needs for years to come."

"Western Digital...it was among the faster drives tested, as was the Mitsumi 12X CD-ROM drive."

"...MidWest Micro was one of four monitors reviewed here that features an OSD and full set of geometry controls. Unlike most of the other monitors, the [MidWest Micro monitor] displayed a sharp image, even in the corners."

"...for those who value a clean motherboard design and depend on CPU-intensive applications, the MidWest Micro is a good choice."
