Hi everybody

I'm planning to buy a 386/25 or 386/33 PC and by browsing through PC-mag and BYTE
I've come up with a couple of companies. As they all proclaim the ultimate salvation
I'd like to know how they *really* are. What were the delivery periods, how well built
are their machines, how do they react when a machine is broken, ... . 

The following companies are :

- AGI Computers (Fremont CA)
- Iverson Computer (Mclean Virginia)
- Standard Computer (Irwindale, CA)
- ZEOS
- Swan Technologies 
- DATAWORLD
- Northgate
- Gateway 2000
- Altec Corp
- Cheetah Inc.
- PC Brand Inc.
- MIS Computer Systems
- Fortron/Source

Any other companies will be of interest too. Please name the machine you bought
and it's specs.

I'll post the results.

Thanks for your help
