they have some ast 486dx2-66's/8mb ram/540mb hdd for $99, also some P90's
with same specs but with 32mb ram for $199, figure on ~$80 for a cdrom and
about $250 to $300 for a name brand, good quality 15" monitor. I am using
them for edge router/firewall boxes. They are expecting 450 of them over the
next few weeks so.....
