Don; You didn't say mention if it had a Monitor. You can almost buy the same system you decribed at Office Depot, with XP loaded. With a years support for $699. I bought one for the wife, but I believe the speed was 1.7Ghz. I put this back on TechAssist, because it's the weekend, and computer prices seem to interest many. -Ed- Tel-Tek Electronics Ontario-Canada teltek2@xxxxxxxxxxxx ----- Original Message ----- From: "Don Hartigan" <hartstv@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, November 23, 2002 4:09 PM Subject: [TechAssist] Fw: Need advise on buying a PC for my shop > > Subject: Need advise on buying a PC for my shop > > > I presently have a 1200 clone with 32X cd rom,20 GB h/d,512 sdm ram,ME,& ADSL=VIBE.It works fine but wish to get another PC for my shop & give this one to my wife for her tax business.We're a ''mom & pop'' shop.My shop is a build-on to my home & her office is in the house. > Seen on Ebay a system with the following; > HP-Athlon XP,1.67GHZ,256 DDR,40GB seegate h/d,CDRW[no speed given],56k modem.Has OS-WIN 98SE preloaded,4 usb ports,2 front & 2 rear.2 serial & a parralel port,audio.Also says complete with LAN[??] Has mouse,keyboard & Polk speakers...312.00 US or 512.00 CAN.
