I have managed to get my hands on a few of the following systems... Asus Book PC mini computers, they are extremely high quality. Asus P2B-N motherboard, and Asus case and power supply (Elan Vital, Asus' case subsidary). these are the specs: -Small Foot-Print 85mmx279.5mmx345mm (very small) -slot 1, 100 MHz bus - supports all Celerons, all P2's, and all 100MHz P3's (800 MHz is the fastest now) -on-board Intel 10/100 mb/s ethernet -on-board ESS Solo-1 sound card -on-board ATI Rage IIc 4 meg graphics -CD-ROM drive (not sure what speed) -floppy -all the standard ports (parallel, serial, PS/2) and the best for last: -1 ISA, 2 PCI slots -IR port on front of computer -2 USB ports on front of computer VERY high quality brand new systems-- much, much higher quality than the PC Chips Book PC's that have been around recently. Also, this has got to be about the only book PC sized machine that is upgradable-- up to, well, any size IDE hard drive, up to 512 megs RAM, up to P3 800, plus add-on cards- modems, SCSI cards, video capture, etc, etc. Another bonus is that the case and board are mini-NLX form factor, the new standard for small computers, so motherboards will be available to upgrade in the next little while. All in all, outstanding machines, and I don't expect them to last very long. $250 Canadian FIRM - NO NEGOTIATION shipping paid by buyer. here is a link to the specs for the machine on the Asus site: http://www.asus.com/Products/Netpc/index.html and, for the motherboard: http://www.asus.com/products/motherboard/pentiumpro/p2b-n/index.html If CPU's or had drives are required, I have new Celeron 366's for $70 Canadian FIRM, and new Fujitsu 4.3 gig hard drives for $75 Canadian FIRM take-home warranty on the system ONLY - I will guarantee that you get a brand new, working system, other than that there is no warranty. This is the main reason I am able to sell the systems this low. Standard warranty on CPU's and hard drives. I am not a retailer, so no taxes will be added to the $250. I am located in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Colin Pazdzior colpaz@home.com (613) 276-7131
