    No Cdrom drive? Ah, who needs em? Or sound for that matter? No one ever goes online that might see it here, so why would you need a modem? And I just hate Disket Drives!

    So basicly, you are selling waht they have at computer stores put together for $450, except the RAM is outdated, as they give you 64mb in one stick, The Hard drive is like 8gb, not 2.5, they include a 450mhz CPU, all the stuff mentioned above, and a case, and then put it togeher and charge no shipping for an extra $100? Wow! Or maybee this is just a bit overpriced.

    C400...129.95 (new)
    64mb Pc100(1 stick)...35(new)
    Diamond Viper V330...79.95(new)
    Tehy don't even sell that HD anymore...$75(new, or unopened anyway)

    $319.19, that is the price to get eveything new from manufacturor web sites, except for the HD witch they do not sell at Western Digital. And you want $350 for them used? Those must be some killer games!

    Yes, you are right on that. I had forgotten to put a few things on there. Also, I have these parts to go with it:

    Gateway Telepath 33.6 modem w/x2 Technology
    Diamond Sonic Impact S90 Sound Card

    And besides, yes you can get a whole computer for around $450, BUT what kind of parts are they using? you will probably get a generic motherboard, a useless video card, and not the mention the sound card, modem and other stuff they will throw on it.

    And as for the games, I am throwing in with it, here is a list:

    X-Wing Alliance
    The Phantom Menace
    Episode 1 Pod-Racer
    Might and Magic 7: For Blood and Honor
    Descent 3
    Need For Speed: High Stakes
    Star Wars: Rogue Squadron
    AND, on top of all that, I will preload Windows 98 on the computer.

    Hows that. Do you think its worth $350 now? All the games ALONE would cost more than $350. And these are NEWLY RELEASED games that you would pay ATLEAST $45 each for at the store.

    Thanks for your time. Any offers accepted. I just need to get rid of this stuff to get another hard drive. I will also accept trades. I will trade any combinations of the above stuff for:

    Western Digital Hard Drive (10 GB or higher)
    64MB PC-100 SDRAM
    Sound Blaster LIVE Value Sound Card

    Used parts are fine just so long as they work. Thanks again

    Darrell

    Yup, now it is worth it, the motherboard is usualy very good, but it has like everything built into the system board (I saw one with a NIC, sound, a 56K, and video once! I do like those 8gb hard drives they include, at least $150 right there. The P2 450 is usualy remarked, and costs about $150, levaing a CDRom, mouse, keyboard, case, disk drive, video, modem, and motherboard to buy wih $150. So they cram everything into a $75 system board get a 2x cdrom, and buy aw case you can cut with a popsicle stick, with all the stuff you are including, a great deal.
