Have to put together a quote for 3 PCs, a laptop, projector, and printer for a Doctor's office. Anyone know of a good online retailer so I can start pricing it out?

I have built two computers with parts ordered from http://www.googlegear.com/ (now http://www.zipzoomfly.com/ ). I like them.

Yeah, zipzoomfly is really good. Newegg as well (duh?).

Check Pricegrabber.com , they are much better than pricewatch in the fact that they offer user reviews of companies.

Newegg for the rest?

LCD's with less than a 20ms refresh delay are good for gaming. But you won't find them cheap.

I just found out that LCD's suck ass for colour matching, so I'm not even going to consider an LCD for my next monitor.

I have a Hitachi CML174B (17 inch LCD, 16ms).

I would have to say:

gaming, all but fast-paced FPS: good
gaming, fast-paced FPS: not so good
color: pretty good, but it is weak in terms of dark contrast

I actually price it all out on Dell and you really can't beat them...I'll probably go with them.
