Well Ian people think I'm odd because I virtually refuse to use online
suppliers for PC stuff and this is the reason, quite simply as a general
rule, they don't care about the customer one bit IMO. There are a few
that do, but they seem very few and far between and this is the reason I
use two or three local suppliers who I have gotten to know very well and
they've gotten to know me through time as well. In general this does not
lead to lower pricing but it does mean I get a decent level of service
and IME any problems are sorted out reasonable amicably and quickly.

Try Creative in Shawlands, Dean in Infinity is not bad as is Graham at
Kustom in Ayr. A good tip is though....stay way clear of Priceless (aka.
Ali Bongo's ;))
