re: <<Intel Pentium 333 (Lots of people do not know this. IT IS DIFFERENT. If you do not know what I am talking about. Do not buy any thing other than name-brand product)>>> Yea, and Ford trucks are better than Chevy trucks. +- 5% on Spenct95 or 97 or winbench or this or that benchmark. Some motor heads really care about this. The problem is that both trucks haul Plywood about the same. When It comes to using PC's from different manufacturs, With the same configurations, very few users can tell the differance. yes at the high end (CAD / CAM and that type of stuff) there might be the ever so slightest difference, 30 seconds vs 31-32 seconds for a very long and complex opperation. This started out talking about a $1,999 P II 333 with 17" monitor. We are talking about the deal machine. If you are looking to use the machine in the high end, most likely you will be planning to spend a little more that the "Best Deal" machine costs. Forsaken will still be over 60 FPs on either machine and we both know humans can't really tell the differance after that. Jim
