There's also Stan's. Stan's's real name is PC Training Center, though it's all PC sales and no training so far as I can tell. Stan hosted EUGLUG in the early days. I'm pretty happy with Mike and Michael at ComputerBase. If you don't know exactly what you want, Mike's advice is great. If you do know what you want, then their prices are comparable to the prices at the reputable on-line stores (e.g., NewEgg or ZipZoomFly). They also stand by what they sell. Replaced a power supply for me for free a couple of months ago, for example. -- Bob Miller K<bob> kbobsoft software consulting http://kbobsoft.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ EuG-LUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.efn.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/eug-lug
