On May 25th at 4:05 am, I wrote there must be something amiss.  Who,
What, Where and When are the first questions.  Next, does this system
work? Did you send the above message via this new purchase?  Where are
you on Planet Uranus?  Please reply back, I really would like to know
if you are for real. 

I just checked out the site.  I see and feel a RAT is on board.  Be
wary of the price, if it sounds to good to be TRUE, it probably is.
The RAM is very high...no one retail is selling 16 MB EDO for more
than $89.  And I got it for less than that with a Rebate offer at
Computer City.  I only purchase rebate.....with reparable Vendors.
You can purchase online with most companies now.  "READ THE FINE
PRINT".
