This morning there was no link to it on the "Desktops for Home and Office" page but I found it by searching for Athlon. I didn't realize they added a link to it until I saw your reply but on gateway.com there is the link to the Select series now. Maybe some webmaster heard they were dropping AMD and took off the link but then his boss said "You idiot we still have to sell the ones in inventory, put that link back up."

Its an extra $335 if you want to upgrade from a S3 Savage4 and integrated audio to a Geforce3 with TV out and a Soundblaster Live card. Also the default HD is a little small. You can upgrade from a 20 GB HD to a 80 GB 7200 rpm drive for $90.

I'm getting an itchy trigger finger looking at prices:

Enlight 72370X3: $50
ECS K7S5A SiS735 Mobo: 65
AMD Athlon Tbird 1.4: 120
256 MB DDR PC2100 (2): 80
IBM 40GB 7200RPM HD: 103
16X Pioneer DVD-ROM: 55
16/10/40 CD-RW: 75
nVidia MX400 Video: 80
Misc: 100
---------------------------

Save a couple hundred over the Gateway system and get
an extra DVD-ROM and lots of DDR memory :).
