When you're ready to buy, I recommend you look at Tiger Direct
(www.tigerdirect.com). I'm retiring my "FrankenPC" (a loose conglomeration
of leftovers I've "liberated" from failed companies I worked for over the
years) for a 64-bit AMD Athlon XP2800 box with 1Gb of ram and a 200Mb hard
drive I bought from Tiger for $800 (open box special). They sting you on
shipping a little, but their prices comfort that sting enough. Their site is
easy to use when trying to find exactly what you want or creating a custom
config. This will be my first experience with an AMD processor. I'll be
putting it through it's paces with some heavy Photoshop work next week. If
anyone is interested in a review, email me off-list. Tiger has a store (more
like a rummage sale) on Capital Blvd. in Raleigh.
