Paul E: re <$1000PC. <As long as you run only one program at a time and you don't have any serious graphics requirements - like Web pages to be displayed. Try running 3 or 4 (or more) to make good use of a Windows environment and you'll be unpleasantly surprised.> Don't be ridiculous, Paul. Where have you seen 3 or 4 tasks with "serious graphics requirements" that a person need to perform SIMULTANEOUSLY? You seem to forget that PC stands for Personal Computer. See: personal. To be productive, a person can concentrate only on ONE task that require graphical resources. Other tasks (if any) are always ran in background and do not need any "serious graphics requirements" at all. If you are preparing a business report or graphics/data analysis, you do not talk to a boss via a videophone... If you play a game, you do not balance your personal account or place buy/sell orders... Therefore, Rupsky is right: "and you have a system that can pretty much do whatever today's programs demand and you still have not spent $1,000."
