they are hard to get hold off. I priced CompuAdd's system, and they are         
something like $700 more. I wonder if my woes are generally attributable to 
buying mail order or whether I might have been better off getting a more 
expensive system, like CompuAdd's.

We have about half a dozen CompuAdd systems here (more if you include those
purchased by our employees for their personal use) and the only real
problem was a VGA monitor which had some picture distortion until it warmed up.
That was replaced via Federal Express in 2 days with no hassles. In addition,
CompuAdd is now giving away free on-site service contracts with their high-end
machines (286/20 through 386/25). I have no connections with CompuAdd other
than those of a satisfied customer (with a 386/20).
