- A friend of mine bought a 486 system from them, and was happy with them.
- I ordered the Talon TA-100 from them, and after harassing my salesman
- for 2 weeks, and continually being told they were expecting stock in soon,
- my salesman finally practically told me to cancel my order and buy elsewhere.
- Which I did.
