Hi!

Well, if you want to buy there, ok...
But do not say I have not warned you before- Snogard is a real
troublemaker, with lotsa people with bad experience from them.

I personally prefer Alternate as mail-order...
Also, in mail-order you have to be prepared for at least 25 DM s&h... 


BTW: in other thread I just read that the Promise could/would probably do
better due to support... Do not know about the chipset the Abit uses...
