    Hee hee, IBM smile.gif
    You'd want to stay away from anything with a "Celeron" in the specs.
    You'd also want more ram.
    'Tis more of an internet and windows PC, than a games puter.
    Get something from the PIII or AMD range, with 128MBs ram.
    Then slap in a Voodoo3 or TnT2 (or something better), and you're set.

    How much is it btw?

    32 odd lids monthly including Surf No-limits.
    Get surf no-limits and a Gateway/dell/clone.
    cuz the above tend not to use stupid proprietry riser boards and wacky cases that you can never upgrade the mb with.

    Stay as far away from Presarios and Packard Bells as humanly possible.

    And please, don't have nightmares
