First of all, for the newbies, b&m=brick and mortar.
Ok, heres the good stuff- a 19" viewsonic .27 monitor for $300 after mail in rebate. They also have a 1ghz DDR thunderbird system and a 1.2 ghz ddr thunderbird system. I wasn't expecting to see DDR systems in B&M shops for quite some time... I would assume these are running on the amd 760 chipset. Both seem to be pretty reasonably priced, $1749 for:
Micron computer
1 ghz tbird
128 mb ddr 200 Mhz
40 gb hard drive
12x max dvd drive
8x max cd-rw drive
56gay modem
16 mb tnt2
crappy speakers
Good 17" trinitron micron monitor
Micron Pc
$2149 for:
1.2 ghz tbird
128 mb ddr 200 Mhz
60 gb hard drive
12x max dvd drive
12x max cdrw
56g modem
slightly better speakers
32 mb tnt2 vid card
sound blaster live! sound card
17" color monitor
Hmmm I would have to say the cheaper one is a better deal as it comes with a trinitron monitor. On either system your probably going to want to upgrade the video card and speakers.
128 mb pc133 PNY ram for $100.
Letsee.. a western digital 40 gb 7200 rpm for $170.. if someone can get a shop with a rebate on this drive then get them to pricematch it.. could be very hot..
If your building a cheap system you can get 2 pieces of 32 mb ram for $20.. $20 for 64 mb is pretty good even if it is pc100 and generic. But you gotta wait for $30 in instant rebates, so its $50 in the store.
Someone look into that hard drive and see if any other b&m places have it with a rebate.
