I'd like to defend Everex, since I am working for them.  On the
other hand, I've only been working for 4 weeks, so I'll just
tell what I know instead.

Everex has only recently started producing Mac peripherals.  The
Abaton peripherals have even less backing behind them, since
Abaton was bought by Everex within the last year.  Give the
company some time; their IBM products do have a pretty solid
reputation.

Everex's Emac (Everex Macintosh.  Yeah, I thought it was cute, too)
division has been fairly reliable; aside from the 20 Meg HD's,
they use Quantum drives, and their modem and Ethernet boards are ok.

I can't say much about the customer support, since I'm in
engineering, except sorry for the hassle they've given you.
