Ali, I can't believe they sell so expensive PCs, if we break down the detail of computer parts. Only Dell uses some good parts, like Video Card and Speakers. In my opinion the price overmatchs the quality of products. If you compare my computer parts which I posted, you will find the different between quality and price(I believe you know PC pretty well). That is why I don't like to buy already made computer. The chip set of motherboard of Zenith and Micron are older 440FX chip set, not 440LX chip set. I believe their motherboards(PD 440FX) are from Intel's Portland. My question is why Intel doesn't make motherboards with new chip set in Portland? Does Intel have any inventory problem, like WSJ report, "Intel wouldn't fill an order for one type of chip set unless the small company also ordered a substantial number of an older chip set." trying to liquidate older chip set? Any one comments? Best wishes James
