I haven't heard of them myself, so I took a quick look around the site.

Looks pretty comprehensive, but I noticed a lot of minor errors in many descriptions and headings. Those could all be honest mistakes. However, to me that suggests of a lack of professionalism, which in turn makes me suspicious.

They are legit

The bricks-and-mortar store is on Stevens Creek in San Jose. I use them on and off and they seem fairly knowledgeable.

I've never used them for mail order (I live 5 miles from them), but I've always been happy with their service.

And, no, I don't work for them ;-)

They didn't get a very good rating at resellerratings.com

I was in a pinch a few months ago and ordered an old processor from them which arrived without incident. They do have a bad Better Business Bureau profile also. I do not think I would recommend them based on the number and nature of some of their complaints.

Any positives?

I am trying to buy some parts -- a mac mini case. They seem to be the only place that has them??
