- I totaly agree with you, execpt with software hut. I used to get stuff from
- them but this past year when you call them you get a old woman who talks to
- you like you are bothering her and she has to ask about everything you are
- looking for.
-
- I get my stuff from safe harbor computers. They are honest about if they have
- it in stock and will tell you when it should be in + or - a day or so. I have
- never had a problem with them yet. I have just tried Amicom who looks ok so
- far but the stuff won't be in until late next week. I post about it when I get
- the 2 cards I order.
