I would like information about the multitude of brands available, and comments on their strong/weak points (i.e. avoid Fred's XT Clone because the hard disk controller craps out too much). Are there any brands I should avoid? Any considered better-than-average? Any advantages to buying the original IBM? Please send your replies, comments, and information. I will post a summary for all to see.

P.S. If you live in the Toronto area, details about dealers (and prices - I'm poor) would be appreciated.
