I have purchased a tower and a laptop from them, both with sarge installed.
When I received the tower something was wrong but I couldn't put my finger on
it. Turns out the video card was incompatible with the motherboard. They
diagnosed the problem (after several false starts) and I returned the box to
them, they fixed it and returned it with no arguments. It now works fine but
I have never been able to get sound to work. They haven't been able to help
with that, and since I don't need sound, I haven't pursued it. I suspect a
kernel problem (now using 2.6.14.3).
The laptop was fine, but so far I haven't gotten it to suspend to disk (i.e.
sleep).
Knowing what I know now, I would probably buy an IBM or HP box with Debian
installed.
