Thank you to all who replied to my question about FastMicro, and their 386-40. From the information I've received, I have decided NOT to buy from FastMicro and would like to ask suggestions on alternate companied. My first and foremost concern is Longevity. I want to buy from a reputable company that will still be there several years down the line. Given the choice, I would get a Dell, Northgate, or Zeos. But I cannot afford those big names. I already have a Gateway, and would definately buy another Gateway, but I am looking for a better value. I would like: 386-40 or BETTER 8 MB RAM 130 MB Hard drive or bigger ET4000 video 15" monitor (Mag Colorview 15" or comparable) both floppies 8 exp slots, 4+ drive bays mini-tower or baby AT case w/ 200w power supply Companies that I would be interested in are Standard, Centrix, KeyData, HD and any other comparable companies. I am not interested in any local brands that sell outrageously cheap computers, or buying at a computer fair. I want service and reliablity. No fly-by-night companies. What do people have to offer? Any responses would be greatly appreciated. (Oh yeah, I am trying to keep the price around $1800 or less -- I might have to settle for a 14" monitor) Thank you, Peter Volpe
