Looking for experience:
Has someone imported a PC from the US into Canada recently?
What taxes or duties were imposed?  We want to spec. out some
systems and compare US vs. Canada pricing fairly.  Also, what
were you charged for shipping?

Information about the company, what problems or successes you
had would be appreciated.  

We currently lust after Gateway 2000 systems (prices are unreal!).

Thank you for your help.  A summary will be posted, assuming I learn
anything about this subject.

It depends on how many shares I have at the time :-)
