No they didnt have alot... it was one specific type of drive... and it was on the 1yr warranty models.

Now almost all drives come with at least 3yr warrantys by ibm/hitachi

Motherboards

Asus are probably the best high-end motherboard manufacturer. For mid-range or budget systems, I've had good experiences with Elitegroup.

You forgot the kings of the motherboard world, ABit, much better and more relable than some of the Asus boards out there.
There is also Gigabyte and SuperMicro which I would place above Asus

For networking always go for the Intel NIC's, for both wired and wireless

personly I'll never trust Creative with my money again, the S/N ratio on some of their cards is bad

For SCSI disks, IBM are probably the best, however for IDE go for Western Digital

I say Lg, Sony or Samsung.
