Get A Gateway. They give their customers a free 3 year, 24 hour, 7 day a
week, onsite reapir service contract wihe thier higher end machines (P133 and
P166). 2 friends of mine just took delivery of 133s and 166s and I have had a
liitle bit of experience lately with Gateway's tech service. Out of 5 times
called to ask stupid questions mainly regardin Win95, there was never a busy
and we got a human immediately.
I am completely envious. I've been trying to reach a human at Dell for weeks
without success. If anybody really there any more?
Wish I'd bought a Gateway, dammit.
