Reflecting on 2022

It’s important to take a step back to celebrate your accomplishments and all that you achieved this year. Otherwise, you’re likely to just jump into the next project (and the next, and the next) while letting the grind slowly get to you. So I wanted to take a minute to do that for our teams here at Puget Systems!

Puget Systems’ 2023 Event Schedule

Happy Holidays! It’s been a very busy year here at Puget Systems and I just wanted to take a moment to reflect on it, share what we’ll be up to in 2023 and where you can find us.  At Puget Systems, one of the things we value most is relationships. There often isn’t a better

Puget Systems Capability and Supply Update

Back in March 2020, I shared a blog post similar to many other companies at the time, that talked about the impacts of COVID-19 on our business. It feels like a lifetime has passed since then!

How We Handle Peripherals Is Changing

Since our founding, more than twenty years ago, Puget Systems has offered a small selection of keyboards, mice, and other accessories for purchase and use with our computers.

AMD – Return of the King?

Back in 2015, we quietly dropped AMD processor options from our workstations. At the time, I wrote a post explaining what had happened, and ended it with a hope that AMD would come back someday with a more competitive CPU. That did, in fact, happen – and over the last couple of years we have seen them surge back into our product line with a vengeance!

My Experience Joining the Team at Puget Systems

Have you ever wondered what it’s like to work for Puget Systems? As one of Puget’s newest Technology Consultants, and with barely five months under my belt, I may not have as nuanced an insight into the company’s inner workings than some of my peers.
