| 720246 | 2008-11-14 21:32:00 | When buying Windows software, is it best to stick with the reputable dealers, or for software can you go to the cheaper ones? OEM MS software doesn't come with support, so therefore it would be logical (in my mind) to go to the cheaper dealers and save $ - software doesn't 'die' like a motherboard does.... Is PB in Wellington a reputable dealer???? Any thoughts? |

| 720248 | 2008-11-15 00:23:00 | Yep. I'll back PB Tech too. I got a great deal on a notebook a few years ago from them and it's still ticking along good as. I get smaller stuff from them now and then too, no probs. | sal (67) | ||
