I want power, but cheap (who doesn't!). The kind of system is something like: * 386-33 Mhz * 64K cache * 4M RAM * 1.2M floppy * 1.44M floppy * 100M 20ms Hard disk * Super VGA (monitor+card (non-interlaced)) * At least 1 parallel & 1 serial ports I've found various prices in Computer Shopper, but I currently favour Insight Computers who can do a system like this for ~$2250. Could anyone recommend their favourite dealers, most hated dealers etc. so I don't get stuck with a lemmon ? Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance, Red/.
