I just bought a brand spanking new one from Monarch, totally custom built.

The only drawback is that if you order custom systems it can take a LONG time to get them if you order them from the company themself. Monarch offers a pretty wide variety of systems and their prices are pretty good but the shipping/construction means it might take up to 30 days to get your comp out to you :/ But you get what you pay for!

Anyway, here: http://www.monarchcomputer.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv

Good prices, LONG shipping
Good customer service, bad initial contact (before you have the computer)
Good parts and testing policies, Good available times/warrenties

That's the quick summary of it :)

Eh, around here we can get people to build us PC's like that in two days, no need for shipping. How good the parts are will be totally up to you because you get to choose what parts you want there (I bought three computers in such places, haven't been scammed yet). Torontonians, Pacific Mall ring a bell?

Continue abstaining, we need sober people to drive the rest of us home...:) There are too few abtainees in Ireland, seems the vast majority of us drink...a lot. I'm a little luckier - if I do drink, it's not as much as you'd suspect from a stereotypical Irish person...

And no, you may not have any Guinness. 'Tis all mine ye heathen!
