This information comes to me ]2nd hand and not from any representative of the vendors. I remember seeing a "pre-production" review of the 386SX model about a month ago. As I recall, this unit would list for around $5500. Are these guys trying to compete with Compaq for the title of most expensive computers, or what? Tim -- tim.lowery@SanDiego.NCR.COM
