Richard, I would agree with Larry on most of the components except the processor. Go for the most you can afford. Since prices have dropped so dramatically you can get a PII-266 for around $2.5K: 64K RAM, 56 modum, 4K video driver, 17" monitor. Check out MUEI website (www.micronpc.com). You can get the basics delivered in a couple of days. (I think they're calling it their XKU series now...) If you're accessing the web a lot, anything you can do to speed the performance is noticed. If you use windows office suite; it's also better.
I have a PII-266, my husband has a PII-300 (both micron's). I bought a Compaq Presario 200MMX for my daughter for college this fall...so I could get by inexpensively. The college runs a T1 line in so she doesn't know the difference, but I can tell the difference in other ways. A PII-266 is better. If you can afford it, you won't be sorry. A P-II 233 would probably be OK for a little less $$. Don't go lower than a 200MMX.
