- 1.3 gig versus 1.5 gig was a budget decision. If you can afford it 1.5 is the way to go. It was suggested that I look at a 7200rpm hard drive and it is faster fiding reading and writing than mt old 5400. The way I use poser,particulairly during renders seems to require a lot of hard disk activity. Actually RDRAM fits into RIMM slots so RDRAM and Rimm are one in the same. A 64 M G2 should be really amazing when playing back AVI files. It sounds like you're after an real muscular PC. As far as price negotiations I phoned DELL canada when I was orderring and expressed disatisfaction that they would not give me the CD RW drive promotion and the GEforce 2 promotion. They would only allow me to take 1 of these. Then I complained about the $100 us shipping charge when I had only ordered the CPU and not the monitor and they then offered me a reduced deal on the Geforce promotion while allowing me to claim the CDrw promotion. Go for the 384PC800 ramm if you can afford it. I'm sure I'll end up there when I've saved a bit more money.
