You'd mean you'd rather them cheat paople out of their money than go
bust? I have heard so many horror stories about Aris. Bad parts, poor
service and unqualified staff. They do not affect me in anyway as I
build my own computers but imagine the average layman on the street.
He goes to the shop, gets shown a demo of what an Aris computer can
do, buys it, brings it back and it goes boom! I have a personal friend
who bought a P100 from Aris and the thing refused to boot after 2
weeks! And do you know how long they brought it back?? 3 MONTHS!! A
simple change of MB would have sufficed. I hereby give you Aris
Computers. Maybe Malek or you should get a PC from them and post your
experiences.....
