This is about $1700. less than our prices for a comparable Compaq 386/20 package (with a 40 MB disk). Our micro support group suggested sticking with the Compaq, mentioning something about low Norton performance on the AT&T. (Considering we're still using IBM PC/XT's, anything is going to look faster!) However, anyone have some specific numbers or comparisons they could provide me? (Or direct me to?) Thanks in advance. -- Mitch Che Pacific Bell 415-823-2454 --------------------------------------- "Samantha was surprisingly quiet... disclaimer, disclaimer, too I found her eating my ID badge..." uucp:{ames,bellcore,sun}!pacbell!pbhyf!che Tales of a dog-owner
