As an organization that refurbishes donated computers for non-profits, we come 
into frequent contact with most of the manufacturers when seeking support for 
relatively old machines.

I have to agree that Dell is the best on supporting their full range of 
installed equipment, followed closely by IBM (although FINDING the info is 
sometimes very frustrating). Compaq is also frustrating at times when seeking 
info on their peripherals.

Gateway is somewhere out in left field on their own and on any given day 
contacting them can range from very rewarding to downright infuriating.
