Its great that you have a local guy who is that good. What you seem to fail to realize is that you're probably one of 3 people on this forum with local dealers that good. You assume everyone else has a dealer next door who is like that or something. I know for a fact that there is not one reliable (or even compotent) computer dealer for 50 miles in any direction from my house, nor one that will charge me reasonable prices. Congratulations, but don't think everyone else is that lucky!

There are an AWFUL lot of computer illiterates out there who send back perfectly good items because they THINK that's what's wrong with their computers (when in fact it's often little more then loose cable or something like that). That means theres a lot of perfectly useful items that sit around some big computer resellers warehouse, and you can get some smokin deals on em (I was referring to individual parts, by the way, not a whole system...). And a reliable reseller will provide warrantys and replacements, even on refurbished items. Just like how you love your local dealer, I love my internet dealer because I know they will quickly exchange an item or give me my money back if I ask them too, and the parts will arrive at my door in perfect shape. I'd love to spend my money locally, but a business has to EARN my money, I'm not about to just throw it away...no local business has done so. Don't condemn me for that...its THEIR fault!
