                                   my guess                  2100



My best guess for value is $2100

For two monitors you will need to upgrade to Win98...Or NT or get a multimonitor card.

To my knowledge HP has good customer support.

I would want to know about the proprietary aspects of the computer. How many open expansion slots are there? Does the computer come with the OS as a separate installation or is there a complete software install disk which includes the OS?
