Company
Background
We launched the orignal PC
Paramedic on July 3rd 1995 in Dallas and made SaddleBrooke a second location for the business in the fall of 2002.
We began by making service calls to SaddleBrooke residents, and, if a computer needed bench work, we did it in our garage,
kitchen or any other flat surface in our house. Linen closets were
filled to the brim with Hard Drives, Motherboards, and CPU's. By the summer
of 2004, the business had grown sufficiently that we were in dire need of
both space and employees.
We opened the doors to
the Computer Store in the SaddleBrooke Shopping Center on September 6, 2004.
In addition to service, the store has given us the opportunity to offer a
wide variety of products as well as local, friendly support to our
customers. As many of you know, we also reopened the SaddleBrooke Post Office September 1, 2006.

Where
are we?
Although we used to spend most of our time in the
store or making service calls, our customers do not see us as much as they
used to.
Julie does the purchasing, receiving, advertising ,
accounting, and builds the
new computers. James keeps
the data center running smoothly and develops websites for customers and
productivity tools for the company. We have lived in Unit 24 for six years and have been seen walking Duffy from time to time..
