Your local public service message: In the latest PC World, the Consumer Watch department says it has received (and continues to receive) dozens of customer service complaints about Fastmicro; that it has been receiving complaints about their new subsidiary, Ritemicro, as well; that the Better Business Bureau in Phoenix (where they are based) gives both companies an unsatisfactory rating for unresolved complaints; and that as of January 1993, neither Fastmicro nor Ritemicro advertises in PC World. Which is not to say that their computers don't run -- I bought a Fastmicro a couple of years ago and it worked tolerably well -- but that there are probably safer choices for comparable prices, no? -- This is NOT a .sig virus do NOT copy me into your .sig file This is NOT * Daniel Starr * Ta twn thewn erga * * dstarr@minerva.cis.yale.edu * Hoi psukhwn twn anthrwpwn logoi. * a .sig virus do NOT copy me into your .sig file This is NOT a .sig virus
