- Well, here in New Zealand its pretty hard to buy good hardware. Hence I
- have purchased from Creative (nothing but trouble, personally) and BriWall
- on several occasions. They (BriWall) know the Amiga and seem to be good at
- advising the customer what status is on goods when asked (like if you
- don't ask don't go blowing your trumpet _sort-of-thing_ when it doesn't
- arrive within 5 days etc) and they (BriWall) nust be on the
- drum-up-business trail because I just received a Thank You card from one
- of the reps. You must consider this good service from a firm half way
- around the world from where I am.
-
- Of course this is just my opinion, cheers.
