Tony - Re: "A word of advice: please upgrade memory to at least 96 MB when using W2K for OS. I've had experience with 64 Meg, and it can be a dog, regardless of CPU. Good ol' Microsoft!" Thnaks for the advice. As for IBM and AMD, something hit the skids there late last year - my guess is that when IBM decided to "go direct" and not use retail, they found that AMD's manufacturing system didn't fit their needs - and that their major customer focus was CORPORATE - and CORPORATE purchases still prefer INTEL by a long shot. Compaq confirmed this just a few days ago ! Paul
