I have purchased 3 CLUB AT machines primarily because of their
price and location.  Two of the three machines have had trouble
with the CMOS Clock/RAM chip which holds the system information.
This is quite a nuisance.  Another machine had a bad hard disk.
CLUB AT was very good about replacing the problem parts but we
had to bring the machine to Fremont for service.  It's clear that
CLUB AT can not do very extensive testing of their machines and
keep their costs and price low.   On the other hand, two of two
IBM AT's we have purchased have had many more problems.
