Generation 4

The 4th generation consoles went fully 16 bit from the mixed 8/16 bit consoles of generation 3. They also introduced in later revisions or adds on the ability to run games or programs from optical media as well as hardware cartridges. the 4th generation consoles were largely dominated by the battle between Nintendo and Sega with the Nintendo Snes and the Sega megadrive.

Chorley's leading computer shop for Business and home computer repair. Service and Repair of PC's and Apple Mac . When we were looking for premises for 1 Stop Tech shop we had a number of considerations. We wanted to be located in a strategic area at the centre of the motorway network that allowed PJR Micro Ltd to service our business and domestic customers easily and cost effectively. We therefore chose Chorley as this location. As we have continued expanding we quickly realised that our Chorley shop was to small for our purposes. We therefore started looking for new larger premises. There was nothing suitable within the immediate area so we expanded our search further afield, and located a building in Whelley, Wigan which was ideally suited for our purposes which we moved to in 2009. As our business is now going more and more data based we need a premises with fast backbone connection and as the fastest speeds we can obtain at Wigan is 3mb we have amalgamated all our business under one roof at our business service center at Coppull Where we have a 15mb and a 11mb backbone connection. Our Business customers range in areas from Liverpool to Wilmslow and Kendal to York and we have domestic customers all over Lancashire and Greater Manchester. Our new computer shop and premises have extensive offroad parking so short distance to carry sickly pc's.

Coppull's leading computer shop is proud to be a synaxxon member
