Summary: Buy it from a dealer.

In article <1117@mmintl.UUCP>, Peter Santoro writes of a horror
story where a friend of his had incredible delays and problems
dealing with AT&T trying to purchase an AT&T UNIX pc.

I bought mine through a dealer and have no complaints whatsoever.
I decided that I wanted to buy the machine on a Thursday and had
it set up and running on Friday.  My only dealings with AT&T have
been in regard to hotline questions and system software upgrades.
In my experience, AT&T has been nothing short of amazingly
efficient and reliable.  They have been more than willing to
solve any problems I have had with the system.

In the interest of good taste, I won't post the name of the
dealer where I bought my 7300, but if anyone is having trouble
finding 7300s, I know he has them in stock.  Send me mail if you
need the name and phone number.
