"Where did the name Acalon come from?"
Before Acalon Technologies was formed, its creators collaborated to create a company name that was unique, memorable, and would make the company's name as distinctive as the services the company would offer. After extensive research, the character name Accolon was found in the famous Legend of King Arthur. Upon reading this name in written form, Acalons creators quickly realized Accolon was open to misunderstanding or mispronunciation. In an effort to minimize confusion and stay away from any meanings tied to the Arthurian storyline, Acalons creator decided to re-word the name Accolon, creating its current form Acalon. The term Acalon has no known meanings and no translations from non-English languages. Acalon is not a combination of names or any other words.

"Can I get a system more quickly than Acalons standard delivery time?"
"Why are systems not available immediately?"
Acalons Standard Delivery Option on complete systems usually takes between 7 to 14 business days for delivery and or installation. Acalon systems are not pre-built before customer orders, and Acalon generally does not keep on hand most of the components necessary to build a complete computer system. Acalon does this for several reasons. The main reason or Acalons reluctance to keep system components on hand is due to the nature of prices in the computer market. Computer component prices drop from day to day. If Acalon stocks Product X for $199 on Monday and Friday the price of Product X drops to $169, Acalon cannot sell Product X to the consumer for less than $199. Acalon strives to keep prices as low as possible. To adhere to this standard, Acalon feels this Non-Stock policy is the best solution for its customers in most cases. By ordering market volatile system components after a customer has placed an order, Acalon can provide the lowest possible prices to the consumer. Acalon realizes that some customers require a system in less than the what is provided by the Standard Delivery Option. For these customers, several options are available. QuickDelivery services, ranging from guaranteed delivery dates spanning 2-8 business days from order date are available to meet the customer's needs. QuickDelivery services are available upon request for a nominal fee. As each situation can differ greatly, please inquire for individual pricing for your quote.
