You can get a Power 100 from Power Computing for $1699 sans monitor and
video card. That leaves you with 8 megs of RAM, a 350meg HD, built-in
DRAM video, 3 NuBus slots, standard NuBus PowerMac I/O ports
(LOcalTalk/RS422, EtherTalk, SCSI, etc), and about $900 (SRP) of software.
100/33mhz 601 with 256K L2 cache. Keyboard. Mouse. Add 14 inch Trinitron for
$299 = $1998 + shipping & handling.
