I did, and I called for a quote.  I was told all representatives were
busy, and one would call me back.  I left my fax #, gave my name,
address, and phone#, and was told it would be very soon, and they would
fax a quote as well.  A catalogue showed up four days later, no call, no
fax.  I ended up buying a Tyan because the vendor had one in stock.  The
HSB catalogue states that all items are tested 72 hours before
shipment.  I did not want to wait three days extra, and nobody could be
bothered to call and explain otherwise.  Seems like a good product, but
initial impression is not good.  Maybe next time.  JPF
