The man promised sending me some information for the system I inquired, but the information never reached me until now. After shopping around, I went to PC Warehouse on Ogden Ave. in Lisle (in front of Lake Side Apartment, across Pier 34 Seafood Resturant). I bought a VGA monitor, VGA controller card, hard disk, hard disk controller card and 1MB expansion RAM. I was very very satisfied with the price and service got from there. For the 1MB RAM expansion kit, exact same parts number as AT&T sells, I got it even cheaper than AT&T employee price. Their store numbers are: (312) 357-7473 and (312) 357-7488. No, I don't get a cut because I have paid. -:) Ming Chow att!ihlpb!chow
