- I missed out on how this thread began, but the more recent RE:'s
- have all dealt with Gateway delivery delays. Nothing is said about
- Austin.
-
- Well, I have an Austin 486/33 ISA system and I am real pleased. I
- ordered it in May 92 and was told that it would be shipped within two
- weeks. Four *DAYS* later, it was on my doorstep. I've only had to call
- tech support once (a toll free call, I might add) and that when well.
- After about five minutes of music, I talked to a tech rep who was very
- courteous and knowledgeable (but not condescending or "uppity"). I
- think Austin's cost a bit more, but it's well worth it to me.
