I have finally given up on my old 386SX.  I HAVE to get
something new, because I want to use it at home to work on.
So...here we go...whould I buy a brand name, or mail order, or
have it built?

I know exactly what specs I want, I just can't decide what to
buy!  I have ruled out Packard Bell, for one, though.

Have you had really good experiences with having one built or
mail order?  If I buy brands, I will probably stick to Dell,
Gateway, Compaq, AST, or Acer, but they all are more
expensive...

Hoping to hear from lots of you--please reply to my personal
email!
