What happened to PCMINT? (And who are you?)

Micro International closed sometime around March 1999. I was an employee of the company between the years of 1992-1997. When I left, I started a network consulting and web design company which has grown and expanded into Dynamis. Eventually, Micro International became one of my web design customers. As a result, I have a [somewhat out of date] copy of their support pages which I have posted here in hopes that it will help someone.

Note: I was never an officer of the company, nor can I help you locate anyone who was, nor do I have any idea why they closed. I was under the impression that they had effectively downsized and were doing fine.

Got a minute? Read this to discover the meaning of life.

G.E. Extended Warranty Contact Information


If you have one of these notebooks and need service, I suggest calling the source company where possible and attempting to obtain warranty service from them based on your serial #. Several of my friends who purchased notebooks from Micro International have successfully obtained warranty service in that manner.
