A fried asked me who to buy his new machine (probably going to be a 286 or an 
SX at most) from.  I advised him to stay away from Gateway, eve though I am very
happy with my Gateway, because I thik he will probably need more tech support
than Gateway is providing.  That said, I figured I'd advise him to go either
Northgate or Dell, because they both provide quality machies and their 
reputatios for support are excellent.
My concer is for Northgate's longterm stability.  I remember reading a while back
that they were having some cash flow problems.  Is there any news on this that I
missed?  I would hate to advise him to buy a machine from them and the have the
compay go belly up.

Thanks for your help.

(Yes, I know that the 'n' on my keyboard (an old Digital terminal, *not* my
Gateway) is having problems)
