Anyone know a good computer store N. of L.A.?

Don't have knowledge or time to build my own system, so thought I'd ask if anyone can recommend a store in the north valleys or Lancaster or Bakersfield., one that's been in business a while, reliable and won't charge too much.

What I'm thinking of buying is a white box with Athlon 64 for general use and maybe some video editing of stuff off VHS tapes.

Maybe try http://www.monarchcomputer.com in Georgia?

What you pay in shipping charges will be offset by no tax to California.

Thanks, mshan, I went to Monarch and got a quote for a minimally configured system (A3200, cheaper video card, small HDD) of $1400, which is about twice what I had in mind to pay. Granted they are quoting all name-brand quality components, and you get what you pay for, but being something of a cheapskate, I'm tempted to go bottomfishing.

Plus, if something goes wrong, I'd pay shipping I suppose.
