I have had nothing but positive dealings with Royal - they include top 
notch parts (unlike Packard Bell - who's technical service was rated at 
ZERO by a computer magazine a little while ago).  In fact I purchased 
from them because Gateway 2000 completely screwed up my order.  

Gateway 2000 sent me the wrong computer to start with.  And then sent 
another.  I called about the first to send it back.  So they sent yet 
ANOTHER of the wrong computer.  And they wanted me to PAY to send them 
all back.  When I had three computers sitting in my house - all the wrong 
one - they sent a monitor.  All by itself.  I got on the phone and 
SCREAMED at them and they gave me a code so that they could be sent back.

I have been *very* pleased with Royal.  I'm sure people could give horror 
stories for every single company out there.  I'd buy from Royal again.

From your message it seems that it is from either ROYAL computers or you have
some relation with them. Neither the original post nor the other follow up
were posted on any other group. But you took pain to flood almost every
forsale group. Looks kinda fishy to me.

       Well Royal Computers are not reliable, period.   They wont
       return your calls once they have received the payment.  And
       they have no reliable customer service setup.  

       Speaking from personal experience.

You noticed this to. His listing was more a slam on Gateway 2000, a well
known company.
