    He probably lives in Cali and thus must pay sales tax.

    Edit: It says india... maybe he's moved to Cali...

    www.essencompu.com is decent. And uhh.. there's one based out of Georgia that has cheap prices and decent service (although I can't remember the name, I just remember Pricewatch listing it as being in GA).

    For that matter, just look at Pricewatch and see who's not in CA. Then check their ratings on resellerratings.com

    directron.com has lots of stuff, also. i think the place in GA is monarch computers, if that's the same place you were talking about MrDig.

    > oh yeah, and i've had good experiences with ebuyer.com. they had great prices on the two things i bought there, a cpu and a case, and they shipped fast.
