ABOUT HARDIN BROTHERS

The Hardin brothers, Rick and Louis, are the second generation to run the family business. The guys started at the bottom as kids cleaning floors, filing and doing anything needed to make a little money. Dad never gave them allowance so they worked for what they wanted, learning business and life lessons along the way.

They feel blessed to have been born at the time and place to see the beginning of the computer age from the inside of a family-owned Apple Authorized Reseller business. The brothers have been here from the beginning, and the third and fourth generations are well on the way…

Being an electronics company when the Apple II was anounced, Mr Hardin saw the potental of the new evolving technology.
