Just give them a previous order #. I have one recorded >in my address book. The current issue of the BCS newsletter came yesterday, bearing results of a reader survey on mail order. Asked what mail order companies they would recommend, 37 BCS members mentioned MacConnection, 37 mentioned PC Connection, and 9 or fewer mentioned a variety of other places. Considering that MacConnection and PC Connection are really the same business, that's quite a vote of confidence! Note that the proximity of Boston, MA to Marlow, NH certainly had some effect on the results. Doubtless left-coasters have their own favorite mail order store.
