Well, I have bought 3 machines from Micron recently

 1) P133 - no problem, well, other than it arrived set to 110V, which we
    just noticed in time.

 2) Powerserver (2x P133).   Aveter delays and delays again, the machine
    finally arrived slightly damaged (broken pins on the backplane), which
    was replacedpromptly.

 3) P150. Arrived on time, again with a damaged backplane, and a totally
    incorrect configuration - 16M RAM instead of 32, wrong soundcard, 
    a missing CD-ROM, etc.  Now, more than a week later, they still have
    not responded to my repeated phone calls or faxes.

I guess I will be buying from Dell in the future.
