Sean and others...

I priced out components at Minotaur for the following:

$ 98.00 ABIT BH6
152.00 C300A boxed and tested
255.00 128MB SDRAM CAS2 Corsair
184.00 6.4G WD Hard Drive (pricey!)
64.00 TEAC CD 32x
132.00 MATROX Millenium G200 8MB (SGRAM I assume)
64.00 In-Win mid-tower case
19.00 TEAC Floppy
15.00 Logitech 3-button mouse
24.22 Keytronic Keyboard
95.00 Windows 98
---------
$1,102.22 TOTAL


How would this compare to a system built with an ASUS board and an AMD 350mz chip? I can get a complete 100mhz system (not overclocked) from a local vendor with lifetime labor warrantee and full support staff in the back room for $1260.84. Both Minotaur and my local vendor charge CA sales tax. Being able to pick up the box and unload it on my vendor is a pretty attractive feature!
