At the time I ordered it I was told 3 weeks for shipment. After 3 weeks I called again and was told 2 more, as I recall. I checked my bill and my credit card was charged before shipment, so I called them to let them know I was going to tell the credit card company to hold payment from them since they hadn't shipped. The salesperson acted miffed and said the prices quoted were for prepayment, but couldn't really argue the case. Anyway this continued for at least another month, with ship dates being missed. I then saw an add from a local company for a 386 20mhz motherboard for about the same cost, canceled my micro 1 order and bought the local one. Works wonderfully! I'm waiting for my next credit card bill to make sure that micro 1 credited my account...I'll believe it when I see it. --Peter ------------------------------------------ -------------------------------- Peter Baer Galvin (203)432-1254 Senior Systems Programmer, Yale Univ.
