Finally got my 320.. After two months of delay, now by mistake they shipped me two machines instead of one! I had asked for 512RAM, the send it with 256RAM. I had asked for it to get upgraded to a PIII-500MHz, they still shipped it with 450-PII. I had asked for speakers, they didn't send them. And worse than all, they send it to the wrong address with a company that I had never heard of. I had to go and get the boxes myself. Did you know that the RAM that VPC takes, is not "off the shelf" and you have to pay $1K for 256M of it!! And almost all the operating system and attached software stuff, has to be provided by SGI only. For instance, VPC is shipped with an older versions of Microsoft Explorer, etc.. and you can not upgrade it by going to MS webpage. And ofcource the upgrades are not available by SGI either. I thought the whole purpose behind NT was compatibility! All of the sudden, O2's are starting to look a lot more attractive :/ --Ramin
