Jim, Re: If you don't care about Quake get a regular K6, Cyrix or PntiumMMX...for even less. Are you kidding me ? I get PII because as a developer I must be sure that my program runs on them. In fact, this new system help me uncovered a system related bug. I don't care about K6, Cyrix. Pentium MMX/Pentium Pro has been put aside because they have been tested. Do you know the percentage of all the Pentium/Pentium II sold are for the sole reason of running Quake(I still can't get the name right) ? Do you know how much faster this game run on K6-2 comparing with PII 300? Last I checked(on Tom's site), it is marginal. Gary
