I know there are several folks here who dislike ADI but I've had a good
working relationship with them for years.  They have helped me out when times
were tough and I consider that a major plus.  I also get a lot of referrals
from various branches around Florida.  People call asking to buy this or that
and they give them my number.

As to Burtek, I really can't comment since I never did business with them.
