Tim --- where can i buy a cheap PC for my friend, she already has the monitor and she will only use it for the internet. I'll submit this entry for your quest .... compgeeks.com I purchased a couple of these pups week before last to set up a cheap workstation network for a friend .... clean, nice, cheap, AND SLOW ..... ggggg but I can also remember when the P75 came out and at that time I thought it was reeeaaaaaallllllyyyyy FAST ...... they do work, and I played with one of them on the net after I installed a stripped version of Win98 .... actually wasn't too shabby a performance and the price was dandy.

I think this is a good setup with good components. Same price as other systems you will see advertised, but better stuff inside: home.eznet.net atacom.com Doesn't come with any software besides the OS -- maybe you can get them to throw something in. I think the $40 assembly charge includes loading the OS, but I'm not sure. wily
