Being one of those unusual geeks who enjoys finding good sources for tech 
and computer gear <grin>, I figured I'd follow the pointer above and see 
what BlackBox has on their shelves.

Unfortunately, their web catalog is about the most disfunctional one I 
have bumped into in very long time. Tried to go to the product listings 
and the server starts throwing up Micro$haft Virusall Basic errors and 
trashing working frames with 404 errors and getting stuck in endless ASP 
ping pong page loops. A later attempt didn't act quite as ugly as the 
first, but frame link texts and icons were still messing up and the site 
never displayed item one of from the online catalog. 

Whatever goods they may have on the shelves, the company is making it way 
too hard to reach it. The BlackBox site looks a BlackEye to me will get a 
BlackBall in my BlackBook.
