I've ordered a PC from a Bay Area store (local to me) about 4 weeks
ago and I still haven't received it because they say components are
difficult to come by (in particular, the cpu and the hard drive).  I'd
like to know if anyone else out there has had similar problems
recently or has had no problems getting their systems.

For comparison purposes with your own experiences, I've listed
the system I've ordered below:

- Intel 486/33 MHz
- 256K cache
- 8 Mb ram
- 213 Mb Maxtor SCSI hard drive
- 3 1/2" and 5 1/4" floppy drives
- SVGA non-interlaced monitor
- 1 Mb graphics card
