    Well not me, a friend. Anyone sells systems (Gerry?) can they post me a spec for above price. I'm thinking at least 128mb, good gfx card, 1gig or close CPU etc.
    Also if anyone has suggestions as to where to buy please post.
    Cheers.

    im no expert,but i doubt u'll get a 1 gig for that price. still a 800 or thereabouts wud be tasty.
    bought mine almost a year ago from dell,it cost roughly 1,200 i think, here she is :
    pentium 3 600mhz
    128 ram
    32mb tnt 2 m64 graphics card,
    13 gb hard drive.
    17 monitor
    blah blah blah
    now that was a year ago so maybe u get an 800 processor in there and a couple of other bonuses for similar money now? neways maybe that was some help to you.
    This is not a good day...to be a bad guy.

    For that price, I could build a duron 600-700, (possibly) clocked up to 900-1000, with a geforce2 mx graphics card, 20 gig drive, 128 megs of ram, 17" monitor, soundblaster live, modem etc. Post up a more exact spec, as I can't guess what exactly you want. Or email me with what you are looking for. This is just off the top of my head, I could possibly build a slightly better spec for that money, it just depends what your priorities are.
