I'll have to relay another Tiget Direct horror story.  I bought a Soyo
combo case(mb and case) from Tiger Direct because I needed fast and
cheap - well I have paid for it.  Ended up getting bad memory, which
later according to mb manufacturer's website was NOT compatible.  I
had to take the unit back twice for them to determine this and got
charged for diags because even though I bought all parts there THEY
did not put them in the case.  Plus the cheap part of the whole reason
for buying there did not quite workout that well either because of the
rebate hassle.  Needless to say after numerous emails and phonecalls I
finally received my last rebate - 8 months later!

All I have to say is that I should have went to Intrex like I had in
the past and will go there in the future.

l8r,

Mike
