CUSTOMER Reviews on our custom laptops
“I used to buy alienware. 3 previous laptops.
Decided to buy origin. My second one. Will never go back.
Their tech team is great. 2 problems occurred since owning origin.
My video card crashed within days of my warranty expiring and a new card was sent out that day and instructions on how to replace it.
Keep up the good work.”
-Dennis B.
“The only thing I can complain about is that it took a while to get my EVO-16s laptop but when I did I was oh so delighted.
It was well worth the money and I will be recommending it to all of my friends.”
-Markus S.
“I haven’t found another custom laptop company that does it as well as Origin.
The laptop you get will perform so don’t even worry about that.
There are a few complaints that it takes too long to ship, but they have ready to ship (RTS) laptops and if you want pure custom laptops then expect a longer wait time.
The support will talk to you if you do it right and so don’t worry about not being in the loop on your new laptop.
It seems pricey, but you’re paying for top of the line and a laptop that will far outlive any other laptop you’re considering buying.
It’s worth it because of that. Would you rather have spent $3k in 10 years through $500 laptops or $3k in a $3k laptop that will last all those 10 years?”
-John B.

Shared Computer Setup
A shared computer can be configured using the following methods:
- Microsoft Intune/MDM
- Preparation package (PPKG)
- PowerShell script
Follow the instructions below to set up your devices with the option that best suits your needs.
- Intune
- PPKG
- PowerShell
To set up devices with Microsoft Intune, create policy parameter directory and use the parameters listed in category Shared PC
:
Assign the policy to a security group that contains the devices or users that you want to configure as members.
You can also configure devices with a custom policy using the SharedPC CSP provider.
Recommendations for accounts on computers running in Shared PC mode
-
If the device is configured in shared computer mode with the default deletion policy, accounts will be cached automatically until there is not enough disk space. The accounts are then deleted to free up disk space. This account management operation is performed automatically. This is how Azure AD and Active Directory domain accounts are managed. All accounts created with guest and kiosk will be automatically deleted upon exit.
-
Local accounts that already exist on the computer will not be deleted when shared computer mode is enabled. New local accounts created using Settings > Accounts > Other Users > . Adding other users to this computer after enabling shared computer mode will not be removed. However, all new guest accounts created using options “Guest ” and “Kiosk ” on the login screen (if enabled) will be automatically deleted on exit.
To set a common policy for all local accounts, you can configure the following Local Group Policy setting: > Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > User Profiles : Delete user profiles older than a specified number of days on system restart .
-
Account Management supports accounts that are not affected by deletion. An account can be marked as excluded from deletion by adding the account SID to the registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SharedPC\Exemptions\
. To add an account SID to a registry key using PowerShell, use the following example as a reference:$adminName = "LocalAdmin"
$adminPass = 'Pa$$word123'
invoke-expression "net user /add $adminName $adminPass"
$user = New-Object System.Security.Principal.NTAccount($adminName)
$sid = $user.Translate([System.Security.Principal.SecurityIdentifier])
$sid = $sid.
