1) Research your purchase (optional)

Review our Terms and Return Policy. If desired, review the ResNet (Residence Hall internet connection) minimum specifications. The ResNet specs have a minimum level to connect to the network and receive support; for a satisfactory level of performance see the "Recommended" column. The ResNet specs are approved by the UNH Supported Products Advisory Committee which has also approved these Buying Tips with information about selecting monitors, printers, and so on. All systems offered by the UNH Computer Store meet or exceed all relevant ResNet specifications .

At this point you should know if you want to go with Windows or MacOS, and whether to purchase a portable computer or a desktop. If you are not sure on these points please call us at 603-862-1328 and we will discuss your needs and options.

We recommend every system have a surge protector and ethernet cable, wireless networking is not offered in the dorms. Our systems include the operating system but do not include Microsoft Office, the supported software suite at UNH. Most people choose to include printers as well.

6) Add PDNC information

We offer a Pre-Delivery Network Configuration service on Windows computers we sell. During PDNC the system is connected to the UNH network, the supported anti-virus software is installed at no charge, and critical security updates and supported application software are installed. During the process annoying trial software marketing pop-ups are removed. This service currently costs $ 23.00, less than half the normal charge (subject to change at any time). More information on the network configuration is available here. The network configuration is not considered necessary for Apple computers at this time.
