I just configured the cheapest Dell 733 I could find (Optiplex GX110, Win98, 64 meg 6.4 gig, 15" mon) came to $2358. An equivalent Compaq presario Athlon 700 was $1618 and that includes a Voodoo 3 card, which was the lowest spec I could configure. (Dell did not have a video option, I guess because they expect you to use the onboard graphics support). I know which I would rather have. In fact I can have the fully configured Compaq (19" monitor, 128 meg ram, TNT2 Ultra, 20gig 7200rpm drive, DVD, DSL modem) for the price of the Dell. Are you really saying you would rather have the Dell because it is better value?
