They're no NewEgg, but they have done well by me, also.

They will per test their "combo" MB/CPU sales for a small
fee. This avoids any problem with BIOS upgrades being
needed to install the CPU.

Um...we have large format Epsons and all I can say to that is HOLY CRAP!!!!
Sorry, but that is rediculous. OR they are getting RIPPED OFF on supplies.

If you buy ink-jet cartridges from Epson, you *do* get ripped off!
Fortunately, there are many cartridge suppliers at less than half OEM
prices. There may be a problem with some "large format" printers. HP
has the nozzles built in the cartridges, and they are protected by patents.

i have never had any problems buying directly from epson.
i have tried some lower priced ink...and though it printed ok...
it seemed to clog up the printer a bit more than the epson product...
but don't really have any hard evidence.



anyway i have been looking at motherboards for the machine
i hope to build...
and noticed that the ASUS A8N5X
has the features i'm looking for...

i'll probably think it over for another week or so

YES!
I checked out Monarch and they seem to have everything I need
at a good price...
at this time i've got the whole thing configured...
as of now i'm leaning toward the Ausus A8NE mobo
and the X2-3800 cpu...and 2 gigs of ram
and will just need to figure out what video card i'll be getting.

The only kicker is that it will end up costing at least $800 or $900

I just did a quick add-up of all the money I have spent in my entire life
on the purchase of automobiles and have come up with a similar
number...about $900 worth of junkers <G>


BTW: My company has provided me with vans for over 30 years now...
so am a bit spoiled i guess...and will never be able to retire due to such a
luxury!!!!
 
Directly from Epson? No wonder you guys are getting ripped off. You can
buy Epson ink from other vendors. It doesn't have to be lower quality ink.

We buy from a local vendor. Where are you located?

I live in Milwaukee...
so there are plenty of local dealers here...
but find buying locally a bit of a pain...
I usually just buy on-line.

I guess I've just gotten too caught up in the 21st century
as buying locally seems like such a novel idea !!!! <G>
