I use their anti-virus and internet security program. Their "Live Update" is the easiest way to keep the programs and their antivirus definitions of any such programs that I know of.
Here's the competition. One of my computers kept hanging up when I was using Symantec's AV. I uninstalled it and put McAfee's version in and it's been flying ok since. Nice site - check it out.
FRISK - F-PROT Anti-virus Software. This is my current Antivirus program. A friend of mine who works for the State of NH recommended the program. It is effiective - is the least intrusive of all other AV programs and has a neat multi-computer license at a good price. The single license is a real bargan
This is the "bible" of all serious computer shoppers. Every imaginable product is available and some are reviewed. There is a shopper price feature and usually a link to the company that makes the product or the store that sells it.
Gateway. Get your "Cow" here ;) - Seriously, very high customer satisfaction - Office Max sells 'em now in their store. They have a really great "assembly line" feature where you can customize your computer and get a quote.
Dell4me. A very popular, highly rated, direct order computer company.
IBM has gone to direct sales. I have no information on their level of service - stay tuned
Home Improvement

Favorite Factory Outlets
L L Bean
Yield House / Renovator's. "Manufacturer and Supplier of Quality Items for Your Home." The web site has more content now - there is an 800 # where you can order their excellent catalogue of very hard to find items including antique reproductions - worth the effort of ordering the catalogue. I've been at their store and they have some great hard-to-find items.
Very Good Reputation.

Sure Fit Slip Covers. Looks like a nice place to get your sofas and overstuffed chairs covered.
Consumer Protection
