>suppliers, prices, etc. Eclipse Computers of Coventry seem to DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, BUY ANYTHING FROM ECLIPSE, EVER! They are without a doubt, one of the worst companies in the whole country. Their phones are always engaged. You can't fax them - that is also either engaged or they unplug it... I recently sent my m/b back to be upgraded to 256k cache. Foolishly, in hindsight, I left the 5x86 CPU and 8MB RAM on board. Firstly, they didn't return it when they said they would; secondly, when it was returned to me, I had rather hoped for the CPU and RAM to be returned too.... not much use, a m/b without CPU and RAM.... :( Shame really, when you finally get through to them by phone or fax, they seem very helpful and genuinly concerned that they are impossible to contact. Not that concerned, however, to do much about it... You have been warned. Give Simply Computers in Walthamstow a ring - 0181-523-4020. I've been to them several times in the last 6 months or so. No complaints. -- \|||/ Scott Mordecai / A BAD DAY SKYDIVING < o,o > Internet: scott@musicman.demon.co.uk \ IS BETTER THAN A GOOD DAY \_/ Compu$erve: 70374,2246 / AT WORK
