1. Computer Universe launches new E-commerce website with a focus on excellent prices

In an effort to bring better prices to the consumer and to offer our existing customers a 'self help' platform , we are extremely proud to announce the launch of our new e-commerce website http://www.it4sale.co.za , where you can find all things I.T, for sale, from cartridges for your printer to new & refurbished notebook computers, all at very aggressive prices.

"We have had excellent feedback from users, quite a few transactions since our soft launch in November, and our clients are enjoying the reduced prices on the website.", says Group CEO Tony Leça; the new site offers an extremely secure payment platform, using a third party trusted Credit Card payment processing facility called PAYU, administered by SafeShop.

For those shoppers that prefer not to pay with their credit cards, the shopper is able to pay Via EFT - orders can be placed , and are processed once the shopper transfers the funds into our bank account.

The feature rich   http://www.it4sale.co.za/  portal also allows you to purchase Gift vouchers online for your loved ones or work colleagues, Gift certificates from R250.00 in value are setup with a unique redemption code, and your gift recipient is able to redeem the discount during the shopping process.

" We are extremely excited with the new shopping portal and encourage everyone to take a trip through our product pages, do some 'window(s) shopping and look for that special bargain on new or refurbished computer equipment and consumables for printers" said Nicole Kallend, sales executive at Computer Universe, earlier this week , who has been tasked with the giant responsibility of administering the over 3000 products on the site.

 2. Are you ready for the Super Rugby Series ?

With the Super Rugby Series coming up , you are now able to watch every game on the run with this new ultraportable battery operated DSTV viewer from Multichoice .

The Walka Handheld TV is a slim, lightweight device with a 3.5” viewing screen providing digital visual and audio quality. Its introduction gives DStv Mobile subscribers even more ways to access mobile TV on the go, anywhere, anytime.

“We are proud to introduce South Africans to the Walka device which is designed to further enrich the mobile TV viewing experience” explains Mark Rayner General Manager DStv Mobile, “It’s a must have, mobile TV viewing can begin the moment you switch it on.”
Previously released devices; the Drifta and the Drifta USB; give access to mobile TV across a wide range of devices such as PCs, laptops, tablets and smartphones. This is done through pairing the viewing device with the Drifta or connecting the Drifta USB. The Walka is a portable TV with no other devices required to view.
After activating the Walka through the MultiChoice call centre it connects to the DStv Mobile DVB-H broadcast signal, giving access to 16 great DStv channels in the genres of sport, music, news, cartoons and general entertainment. The content line-up includes the two brand new channels that were recently added; magical channel M-Net Mobile and the informative Discovery channel.
The Walka will be the third device (after the Drifta and the Drifta USB) to be released by DStv Mobile since commercial launch in November 2010. The device will be available at MultiChoice centres and select retail outlets from 1 December 2011 at the recommended retail price of R649 - Available from http://www.it4sale.co.za for ONLY R598.00 ! .

4.Oh no ! Just as we are getting used to Windows 7, Microsoft is looking to launch Windows 8.

Just as you were getting used to the idea of 'icons' , Microsoft has decided to change all of that and call them 'tiles' ! A bold move that clearly is moving the computer user to a more interactive touch experience with the windows operating system , and away from the mouse driven system.

We think that we like the new Windows 8 interface .......

Microsoft have posted an informative You Tube video here if you would like to see Windows 8 in action .

5.We have moved to larger premises - We have a new telephone number in Cape Town - take note.

In January our Cape Town operation moved into new, larger offices - 7 Camp Road Maitland .

Although our National number 0861-UNIVERSE (0861-86483773) will direct you to our new number, we thought that you may wish to take a note of our new direct numbers for our Cape Town office :

tel (021) 510-5909
