I, too, purchased a computer from Ultinet. Sure enough, their prices around Toronto could not be beat, and their systems sure _sounded_ good. Anyway, it's now 5 years later, and my system is still working fine. I just sold the motherboard, CPU, and original memory to some guy for $100, and I still have the case, video card, hard-drive and monitor all working smoothly. A friend of mine purchased a super Pentium system from them just when Pentiums came out - whole thing cost him probably around $5000, and as far as I know (that was 2 years ago), it has worked fine for him. However, this is not to say I don't believe others posts, and I will probably NOT frequent Ultinet again. Keep in mind, if the people selling and fixing computer systems really knew anything about computers, they wouldn't be selling and fixing them, they would be building them - our economy is in desperate need of knowledgable electronics/computer technicians in HIGH TECH jobs, and you should see some of the morons working for some of the big "Cutting Edge" companies - these guys working at Ultinet and the like could easily get jobs at any high tech corporation if they had a clue about computers and electronics.
