In reply...

1) Brand: Zeos Pantera Pentium 60 MHz (10 Bay case, Tape Backup, 2x
CD-ROM, 8 Meg RAM )

2) Why? Rated in top 3 in most categories at the time...speed, customer
support, power, reliability.

3) Satisfied? Yes. Very much so.

4) Upgrades? From no modem to USR 14.4 Internal Sportster to USR 28.8
Internal Sportster w/voice messaging; from 8 Meg RAM to 24 Meg RAM; from a
Western Digital 528M IDE HD to an additional Conner 1.275G IDE HD; and
from no network card to a 3Com EtherLink III network card.
Spent to upgrade? Hmmm...Prob. $700-$800.
Upgrade easy? For the most part. After getting Windows 3.11 tweaked to
perfection the Win '95 upgrade was the worst as far as getting it to
recognize and configure my hardware. (Hardware Wizard should be Hardware
Mage Apprentice in Training). ;-]
