   Well this is effectively *spam* for this newgroup.  Other vendors 
please note: don't post this type of message here.

   This newsgroup is primarily about SOFTWARE - the OS/2 environment and 
associated issues.

   You should note that computer hardware is something like 10% of 
computing.  90% of computing is software.  The concentration and 
preoccupation with hardware today is primarily due to M$ who has 
*captured* the main part of computing to such an extent that we have 
"choice" only in the small *residual* part - hardware.  Have you noticed 
that most computer "chatter" out there is about hardware - e.g. what 
video card, sound card, what DVD drive do you use, what size and type of 
monitor etc. etc. how boring!  What do you think people have in their 
mind's eye about how they actually experience computers?  No prizes for 
guessing!

   Anyway buying hardware from across the Pacific doesn't make much 
sense.  Competition is so fierce that prices here barely make vendors 
much living...
