I've bought a few hundred systems from ASA computers
www.asacomputers.com

They are alright. I've heard lots of good things about Silicon Mechanics
www.siliconmechanics.com. I think I'll be buying a system or two from
them soon, mainly since they are local and I do want on-site support,
don't want to troubleshoot and replace stuff myself.

Both specialize in Supermicro systems.
