Hey bluemax, fellow canuck here. I work at a service department in a local computer store here in NEw Brunswick and I have seen quite a few IPC computers come in. I don't knwo, i just don't get a good feeling about them. If I were going to buy a new computer I would go get one custom built. Get some brand name parts in there. Like a nice asus MNB, I recommend the ASUS CUSL2-C, seems to be one of the best P3 Boards out there. Also take advantage of the dirt cheap RAM out there. My store cells 256 Meg PC-133 for around $80.

Like I mentioned... I'm currently standing in a local vendor-shop (Kendrick Computing in Winnipeg) who not only offers a good price on parts to begin with, but knocks the whole thing down 10% for getting a system. 15% on the monitor. ;)

I think this guy is where I'll get it from - so now it's just a matter of WHAT to get.
I think another KT133A/duron-Tbird combo is plenty for me. :D
