Thanks all who've responded.

As a small sidenote: does anyone on the list have the contacts for Benson of Mac & More? I'd like to have a follow-up tête-à-tête with him.

Also, does anyone have contacts for good sales people from any of the other two stores?

Thanks once again.

I agree with Alvin,

I have bought all my Mac laptops from Elite over the past 8 years and they have never disappointed. Their support is also top notch!

Regards,

Brian

Stock is always an issue as the notebooks are damn costly and they
don't move fast,

but I could vouch for Elite as they always deliver even on order and
they have superb techies trained in MAC.

Warranty is aptly covered too !!
