     Well, I can't vouch for the entire USA, but I'd have to say that
Computer Solutions and Facts in Des Moines, Iowa, has pretty good service
(which is fortunate as they are the only Commodore dealers in Iowa unless
a new one has opened up that I don't know about).  I had some problems with
my Amiga 3000 at first, the only origional peice of equipment is the case!
I had the floppy drive, hard drive, and mother board replaced because of
actual or precieved hardware non-functionality.  They lost my mouse but
replaced it with a NEW mouse.  They serviced my 1950 monitor and I havn't
seen that irritating flicker yet.  All free of charge (it's still under
warrenty).  They didn't charge me a cent to upgrade (i.e.: copy) to 2.02.
Through it all they've been helpfull and courteous.  They have an A500,
2000, and 3000 on display.  The 3000 has a large laser printer.  The are
usually running videotape demos of something, Digi-View, animation packages,
etc.  They have a large selection of software on the shelves that you can
test drive in the store.

     No dealership in Iowa, a state with a population of 2M people, is going
to come close to any dealership in Chicago, population ~10M people.
