I cought an ad in a recent Byte magazine for MicroTech systems and had
them send me some literature. This one caught my eye...

486DX2-66, 256K cache, 8Megs ram (expandable to 64), 248Mb HD
seven 32bit EISA slots, one 32bit EISA/Local Bus slot
3.5 and 5.25 drive in mid sized tower case
14" SVGA non-interlaced .28dp monitor
Mylex GLE911 EISA graphics controller (1280x960x16 or 1024x768x256)

$4275 base.

I'd like a 16" monitor and more RAM and HD but it sounds like a decent
system and it is all black... case, monitor, and keyboard... so I won't
feel too bad about it.
