As far as ZEOS is concerned, you can get a lousy computer from Zeos but they have excellent support to replace this loss. Zeos uses excellent motherboards from (Mylex and AMI). There is some patch work done on the boards, however. TriStar is a very nice company. They give you a 2 year garentee and it is apparent that they use the Technology Power Enterprizes Motherboards that Ares and Northgate uses. The TPE boards arn't a 6 Layer board but, they do scream. Check out Ares, before you buy Tristar. - Greg
