    :@ dabs

    i ordered frmo dabs yesterday, and the webpage kept timing out and i got the error message "have time out. refresh page" or something. i couldnt be bothered to wait till morning to order so i ordered of aria instead. i get in from the sh**est day i've had in ages and i have a email from dabs confirming my order. gonna have to send the aria one back tho cos dabs was 8 quid cheaper

    also today i cracked the small LCD on my V200. As you can imagine, im over the moooon!

    I've found them really good actually; just got me new router/firewall from 'em along with a new hard disk (don't ask), and it was there next day. I use them a lot at work actually, our account manager's a top chap.

    I have only ever used Dabs once (thankfully going by other people's experiences. I ordered a network card in an emergency, arrived the next day, no problems, i wouldn't like to test them again however...

    I think they're ok... the number of times I've used them all turned out to be very good experiences...

    I love dabs account system tho - i've never had any problems with them and they do have some very cheap stuff, its just being able to find it amongst all of those thousands of lines.

    They couldn't be beaten when i ordered my v3 ms intellimouse explorer, logitech keyboard and ms sidewinder v2 joystick.

    Beat everyone else i could find by a good £10, and it was with me the next day for £3 delivery.

    shut up jcb33, if you got the wrong goods that you paid for then they have to change them by law, if you didn't make them change it is your stupid fault.

    You're right about that... It's easier to download the product spreadsheet and scan through that instead.
