Can anyone comment on a series of computers built by a company named
"PC Positive"...? The Price Club here in the Washington, DC area has
been selling this line of personal computers for the last several months.
I am interested in the 386 based machine; PC Positive makes several models
beginning with a 286 up to a 486 machine. I had purchased a Packard-Bell
386SX and had real problems with it; I returned the machine and received
credit towards another computer purchase. Actually Price Club was very good
about it as I had the Packard-Bell for about 4 months; the hard disk has
been repaired once and is down again....The color monitor also sucks!!

I understand that PC Positive is a California based company; one customer
II was able to talk to claims the PC Positive 486 machine is terrible; but
the 386 machine is great... Anyone have these PC's????

Earlier posters have noted problems with the Packard-Bell computers...
