Gack, its 95/98 by another name, still stinks of crash;-). Get one with 500+ MB RAM and Win2k, my advice. If you have to drop mhz for RAM to keep under budget, do it (FWIW, Poser+Max-which is what using the PP importer is to the system- uses ~300-400MB with moderatly (10-20MB scene files). Don't fall for the RAMBUS jive, either, stick with PC133. YMMV
