O.K. I can't reist this one. Today I just got the new DELL catalog. Page 9, P 200 MMX with 32 MB Ram. $ 1,799 subtract about $260 for the monitor and you have $1,540 Plus $90 for shiping. that is 1,630, lets be nice and call it $1,600 for the box in you home or office. HP $800 and you have to carry it into your home or office. P 200 with 32 MB Ram. Now Who ya gona call ? Rebut to the comming rebuttel. In the motercycle business, a 900 is better than a 750 which is bigger and better than a 600. A CBR 900 will beat a GSXR 750 which will beat a ZX-6 In the Car business, My V8 is better than your V6 which we all know is better than a 4. The point behind this is, most people identify with a single number, in computers it is MHZ. A 200 is a 200 is a 200. and a 200 is not as good as a 233 or a 266. Now I know the DELL machine will score 10-15% higher on Winstone, but is 10-15% worth 100% more money, why not just buy a 233 for $300 more. These are ADVERTISED prices, this is what the companies want to sell. These are the prices potential buyers are seeing. I know which one I would buy, Do you ? To those that would like to argue my single number identifier on product groups, Which is better, Ford or Chevy Trucks ? Everyone knows that Ford is the best truck, Even though my best friend thinks I am wrong, He is the one that is wrong. Jim
