One nice thing about MacWarehouse --- they have a 1-800 number which
works in Canada.  I think that they are the only one who does.  They are
also very capable when it comes down to doing all of the appropriate customs
stuff for sending goods to Canada.  I have only had good experiences with them.

All you manufacturers and sellers out there who advertise 1-800 numbers in the
magazines:  please realize that unless you arrange it specifically, the number
doesn't work from Canada.  We would all be very grateful if you would make it
as easy for us Canadians to buy your goods as it is for people in your own 
country.  Also, some companies don't even list a normal (non 1-800) number, 
which forces Canadians to try and find the company through directory 
assistance.  And if the address is not given, we can't get through at all!
From our point of view, MacWarehouse has the right idea.
