Brian,

First, pay a little more from a vendor you know and trust.  If you can,
try getting it locally.  Once you add in another $10.00 for S&H you're
up to about $110.00.  The advantage of getting it locally is support for
setup questions and if you have to return it you won't have to pay S&H
back and go through the wait.  I've found a couple of stores in my area
(Milw. WI) that will work with me.  I'd research your prices at
www.pricewatch.com or www.killerapp.com and go negotiate a little and
see if someone wants your business.

As far as mail order vendors go, Custom Computer Systems Inc has it for
$88.00, Axion technologies has it for $90.00, and Grump Micro has it for
$97.00.  I've dealt with Grump and had no problems.  However I have read
of some problems.  Not many, but no vendor is perfect.  Both Grump and
Axion make no profit on shipping, which is nice. 

You can research what people thought of vendors overall at:

Great site to make you feel better about who you're buying from.

Good Luck,

James
