newegg.com update.

Ok, here's the legacy.

Got all my hardware in relatively quickly. Everything was as advertised. Assembled system, tried to load stuff, stuff broke. Problem APPEARED to be a malfunctioning IDE controller on the motherboard. Sent motherboard back, recieved replacement. Experienced same problem, guessed (correctly this time) that the problem was actually a bad CPU. Sent CPU back, got replacement, stuck it in, and it worked. /emote happy.

I also ordered some stuff for a friend's computer - everything came in, once again as advertised. I haven't assembled it yet, but I am VERY happy with these guys.

/emote gives them six thumbs up.

I'm happy so far too

although I've "only" ordered from them once so far.

It's a bit worse for me since I have to pay sales tax. And, Fry's has been running some pretty good specials (e.g. 512MB of "no name" (literally) PC133 SDRAM for $40. But, hey, it works -- my Athlon 1.2 is now up to its full 1.5G).

However, if my old Cyrix-200 m/b is shot, I'll be investigating Athlon 1.4's.

I do like the fact that they're very clear on their shipping costs -- stated right by the prices.
