[comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc] Reccomendations on mail order companys

wadswort@babss.UUCP (John H. Wadsworth) (03/27/91)

I'm considering buying a 386 or 486 pc and would like info
on some  companys. Good and bad experiences. Any company
info would be appreciated not just the ones listed below.
I've seen the product file mentioned in the faq.
The companys I have in mind are :
Ares Microdevelopment
	looks like a decent machine at a air price
Gateway
	This is the one to beat, I guess. I've seen a few
bad reports but also a lot of good ones.

Insight
	Low prices. Lots of queries in the products file and
one favorable responce. Anyone else actually buy one ?

SAI systems
	good price and a local office. They don't seem to
be mentioned much in any of my reference material. Anyone
heard of them / dealt with them?

Thanks    John H. Wadsworth  uunet!babss!wadswort
