This is from a flyer which I picked up at the Gateway store in Akihabara last weekend. <G6-200 Multimedia> Intel 200 MHz Pentium Pro processor 32 MB EDO Memory 256 KB Internal Cache 3.8 GB Quantum IDE hard drive ..... 12X IDE CD-ROM drive ..... US Robotics 28.8 kbps FAX modem 17-inch Vivitron color monitor ..... Seems like it comes with other gimmicks which I really don't undertand. (Don't blame me. I'm not a CS major.) The price is 398,800 yen (approx. $3,500). I'm not sure if this is what you are complaining you cannot find, but if you are interested, call 0120-54-2001. It's toll free. After all, you may not get ripped off in Japan so much as you seem to believe you would. --Michiaki
