>$1,000 - what is wrong with the following configuration:
MediaGX 166MHz with integrated soundcard and graphics, 33k modem, 1G hard drive, 12x CD Rom, speakers at $499.99 (Micro Center retail)
add 16 Mb, a reasonable monitor and a reasonable printer - and you have a system that can pretty much do whatever today's programs demand and you still have not spent $1,000.

Yes, there are more powerful graphics cards and better soundcards - but like there are Accuras and Ferraris, many more people are very well served with the Accuras.

I happen to be long INTC and wonder how foolish I am.

Have a GREAT day
