Ditto the above. We have used Microns in our office for a long time.
We still have our first Micron 486 (back when the were called Edge
computers, says Edge on the case) must be at least 4 or 5 years old
and it's still banging out the numbers.

We resisted buying "name brands" (i.e., Compaq) because it seemed to
us the spare parts were way too expensive. I remember having to
replace a harddrive in an old Compaq 386 20e and it "had" to be a
Compaq drive that cost us about $800 for 120Mb (this was a couple of
years ago). If something fails on our Microns and they are off
warranty (which hasn't happened) or if we just want to upgrade the
drive  or something I can go down to the nearest computer hardware
store and pick up any drive I want.
