I had been in the market for a PC for a few weeks before DAK's catalog arrived.... Looking at Computer Shopper had totally turned me off to the clone market; every time I found a machine that seemed to have a good price and be what I wanted, it was missing something... Some would exclude the second floppy, some would exclude a mouse, some would leave out the monitor. Then I spotted DAK's PC offering. It was a 386SX for the price most others were selling 286 PCs for, AND it was loaded. The stack of included software was the kicker--I ordered 2 days after receiving the catalog. I've now had the PC for about 6 months and have NO complaints. Like the original poster, I ordered mine with 1 meg and it came with 2 megs free!! I too wish I'd opted for the 80 meg drive; I did not install all the software that came with the PC, but did install MicroStation PC 4.0, which takes up 11 megs... The BSR does all I wanted it to do and more. I'm VERY satisfied. Kurt -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- || Kurt Tappe (215) 363-9485 || With. Without.
