As a Proxy for reputability and trustworthiness, I have a few criteria:
*****
1) If they have enough money to advertise on the GLOSSY PAGES. :-)
2) If you also see that their ads in PC-Week or PC-Magazine.
3) If they don't have half-naked women leaning over the monitor in the ad, or
background pictures of fighter planes, or astronaut helmets with the name

These may be necessary conditions, I don't know if they are sufficient!
