Fred - Re: "What's all the hoopla about....I thought no one needed anything more than a sub $500 PC these days anyway....<ggg>"

Good one!

A better one is the AMD hoopla - it has shifted from "Who needs fast FPUs (ala Intel) except stupid gamers" to "Wow, the K6-2 is a screaming gaming machine - AMD is gonna kick Intel's butt!"

Good luck on your 400 MHz system choice. With the speed an memory of those systems, you will be getting some real horsepower no matter what you choose.

You might want to clarify the "WIndows 98" status of the machines as far as upgrades or inclusion with the system.
