is this true?????????????????????/ For $999, an I.B.M. machine offers many features and room to grow. (Aptiva E16) (Hardware Review)(Evaluation) The New York Times, Dec 2, 1997 v147 pB12(N) pF6(L) col 1 (22 col in) Author Manes, Stephen Summary IBM's Aptiva E16 is a $999 computer that out performs HP's Pavilion 3100 and Compaq's Presario 4500, and is designed to accommodate growth. The machine comes with a K6 MMX chip designed by Advanced Micro Devices. HP and Compaq's $999 machines both come with Intel's Pentium 166 MMX microprocessor. Aptiva is shipped with 256Kb of Level II cache and a temporary storage bin that is used to move data between the processor and the RAM. The numerous expansion slots and bays on the tower case provide great expandability. A CD-ROM player is standard in all three machines, however Aptiva's is slightly faster. The machines all come with a serial port, a printer port and two universal serial ports. A monitor is not included in the $999 price for any of the machines.
