- I ordered a custom 486-33 from Dee One and have had no problems with
- it so far. I bought it from them because they had a good price and
- they were the only place I called that didn't try to pull
- bait-and-switch with the monitor - I wanted a NEC 3FGx, and asked for
- system prices with it included, and everyone else claimed that they
- had misunderstood and raised the price $400 or so when I called back
- to order. Dee One stuck to their original price (with the NEC).
