The fact that you didn't get the delivery as promised is indicative of
MacProducts' customer service.  I have dealt with them for a long time and the
only reason I buy from them is when the low price outweighs any need for 
service or support.  I've had trouble getting things delivered and have had
trouble getting things serviced.  The owners are cheap and the bottom line is
the $, even at the expense of a bad reputation (which they have in the Austin
area).
