I'm strongly considering ZaReason, if only because they're a 'local' shop,
which I feel good supporting. :) They seem to come highly recommended, too.
I'm comparing specs and prices, and just thought I'd mention that ZaReason
and Dell aren't too far from each other. The HP (Vista my only option!)
that someone pointed out is costing a lot more. It comes with way higher
base specs, though. But... I'm not trying to fly rockets or anything...
Thanks, all!
