On 229, the joke was always "Order it from McMaster, it'll pop out of your CD-ROM Drive."

I've had nothing but great experiences with them as well.

The only time I had a semi-bad experience:
I placed a web order. 20 minutes later, I realized I picked the wrong screw length. Called them up, and asked them to change the length I chose. They said they couldn't, because it had already shipped! They're FAST.
