Dear Diary

A significant preliminary purchase. I ordered a pc online through MicronPC.
I considered Dell and Gateway. This will be my first non-Macintosh computer
:-(. Alas, business considerations (i.e., both research and consulting)
have forced my hand. I was impressed most with Dell's
website;
they have it down. My choice decision was highly influenced by a knowledgeable
computer staff person from Boston University
(many
thanks Nael) and the better value offered by MicronPC
(
a similar Dell system would have cost approximately $400 more). I felt
comfortable configuring and purchasing a computer online. I believe that
it made more sense than going to a bricks-and-mortar computer store. The
product will be delivered to my door by a friendly customer-focused UPS
employee. What else do I need? For the type of system that I ordered and
the quality and service assurances I require, a computer is a computer
is a computer.
