I just purchased an Altec 386 with the following configuration:

	intel 386-25 Mhz CPU (zero wait state)
	4 megs of RAM (80-ns SIMM Chips)
	105 Meg (18 ms) IDE Hard drive - CDC (Control Data)
	5.25 in 1.2 Meg drive (TEAC)
	3.5 in 1.44 Meg drive (TEAC)
	Multisync SVGA Monitor by Samsung (1024 x 768)
	16-bit Paradise VGA Card w/ 512k
	built-in Clock/Calendar
	Genius Mouse
	2 Serial, 1 Parallel, 1 Game port
	101-key keyboard with plastic dust cover
	MS DOS 4.01

The above system goes for $2795.  They do same-day shipping if you call them
before 3 pm EST.  If you buy these pre-configured systems, they've alrealy
gone through 48 hrs burn-in test.  The shipping is UPS ground (additional $55)

I've bought mine with a midsize-tower case for an additional $130.
The system looks great, works great, and I'm very happy with it so far.
You can find their ads in most BYTE issues.
