Ten,
RE:"Then when it comes time to install Windows 98, I have to pray that the
drivers provided with the el-cheapo components actually agree with the
OS."

What el cheapo parts are you refering to? Have you ever opened up an e-machine?

What corners are you talking about cutting?
If you save $50 on the HD and cpu that translates into at least $80 on the retail end. That's significant. If you own the monitor company like e-machines, you can give a little on the box and make it up on the monitor as a marketing ploy. There's the $100 difference right there.
