Hello All,
I bought a HL built pc back in 94 (486/80).  While it's getting ready to
be retired to a router (maybe), it has served its purpose extremely well
(better than my current custom built oldie from 97).  Assuming things
remain the same, I would recommend them.  They may not be the cheapest,
but if it works for 8 years,  it might be the Honda of custom built pcs. 

NOTE the 'assuming' statement above before making your decision though...

Steve
