Do you by any chance have an update on the prices for the 386/33 (prev.
priced at $2995) or the 486/25 (prev. priced at $3495)?  Also, is the
equipment changed at all?  Does the 486/33 still come with 8M of RAM/200M
HD?  

Considering what I have heard of Gateway's machines (opinions of friends
who have bought their 386 systems) they'd be a great deal at $1000 more,
and so this...
