I have ordered from BriWall. They are very good and quick (even to Canada!). They're prices are low and usually the best around. I ordered my HardFrame SCSI interface from them. Very good & reliable service. I have also tried Creative Computers in California. They are all right, although it took 6 weeks for one of thier packages to get here (it was on back order, they said, so I forgive them) and the other only took about 2 weeks. They were both software items. I think that both these places are very good, they should be checked out! * QNet 1.03a3: Amiga Blue International (416)844-0465 Toronto (SmartNet)

I've dealt with Abel exclusively for over 2 years now. They have never screwed me over, although sometimes it takes a while to arrive (worst case: 1 month for TxEd, which may have been because Txed was in midst of an upgrade). I have noticed that their response time has improved a bit in the last year. They do have the best prices I've seen anywhere. And their catalog does make a good comparison shopping sheet, simply because they carry so much stuff. Numbers: BBS 615-428-0643 FAX 615-453-7055 Voice 615-428-5100 I have no connections with Abel Supply, other than being a satisfied customer. --hal --------------- hgm@ccvr1.ncsu.edu "Oh dear, now I've made a terrible mess of things. netoprhm@ncsuvm.bitnet And all I wanted to do was rule the universe."

Although they have great prices and a nifty newsletter, their delivery service is horrid. Twice I made next-day Fed Ex orders from them, and neither time did the product arrive within the week. I mean, sure it was next-day-shipping, but the day after which it arrived was considerably later than the day I ordered it, if you follow the wry joke. One one occasion, they accidentally "forgot" to ship my order on the right day... interesting interpretation of the meaning "overnight".
