Any particular reason? I'm not partial to any company...I just want the best deal....but I won't buy a "house brand" because I am wary of parts and support. While a generic house brand could get me my 1GHz at a $200 discount off even CPQ....I am not familiar enough with most of these companies to know how fly-by-night they are. Right now, I'm leaning to CPQ because I can get EVERYTHING I need for about $200 less than Dell or GTW. That's a pretty hefty savings...I usually will opt for a less expensive brand if my savings exceed 10%, and that seems to be what I'm getting.
