Coz, Why not call AMGV directly for your PC? 719-548-1616 I would think they are able to get the configuration you will need for work? I agree with Wal-Mart promoting their web site. They have invested considerable amount of money and they want to be one of the industry leaders on the web. Remember when Sam Club was draining money from Wal-Mart quarter after quarter? Well Wal-Mart corrected the mistakes and now the profits come in to show them once again they are on the right track. I believe the web site has just started to show a profit for Wal-Mart and they are going to do the right thing again to make a it a profitable division within Wal-Mart. All these positives are an asset for AMGV. We're on track with a company that has proven over and over again they know how to make money. JFO

One of Wal-Mart's "secret weapons" is its logistics capability. They've made a science out of getting goods from manufacturer to their stores as quickly and cheaply as possible. I know this because I am familiar with their Information Technology department and how IS implemented the "back-office" to provide this amazing capability. This system will allow them eventually to provide BTO right there from any Wal-Mart store and deliver it either to the store or directly to the customer. You could walk into a Wal-Mart, walk up to a kiosk, build your PC interactively, arrange payment, AMGV would get the order, build it, ship it through Wal-Mart's distribution pipeline, you'd come back next day or the day after, and pick it up. There is a sizeable market of customers who still want to walk into a "real" store and do business, and Wal-Mart can tap that market, too, with BTO. $^)
