Re: 599 PC

"While the price of the new computer doesn't include a monitor, it does include a 32X CD-ROM drive, two USB ports, a 56Kbps modem, and Lotus SmartSuite software."

A computer made for todays standards needs much more. It needs a monitor, video card, sound card, mouse, keyboard and Windows 98. After you add all these things to a stripped down system, you have at least a sub-1000 system.

The price might get attention, but it's missing certain components needed to run most software titles. You get what you pay for.
