Pretty much the same computer from Gateway is $4858 (with Rambus memory). Both this and the Dell computers were 1.5 Ghz computers. Over at Micron the fastest computer you can buy is an Athalon 1 ghz. The Micron/Rambus lawsuit might be affecting daily business. The cost of speed is interesting. I am functioning happily on several computers the fastest of which is 500 Mhz. I can keep on at 500 Mhz (1/2 Ghz)for $ 0. I can double my speed (1 Ghz) for $1000. I can triple my speed (plus more??) for $4000. + + I'm tempted, but I don't feel the need to jump. Anyone?
