...like many others here, I am having to upgrade to a newer bigger system to take advantage of P5. I am not one into "building my own" nor do I know anyone trustworthy enough in my area that I would want to go that route. I am not looking for some monster "dream machine" In the past I have purchased through Gateway, but may be able to get a better deal on Compaq....does anyone here have experience good or bad with their systems? Scarab<-sitting by the side of the road, overwhelmed with choices...
