We are happy with our new 4150.  Got a CD drive (extra $) and a floppy
(included)
Ours came with WindowsXP (spit!) installed.  Since we use some DOS
programs that will *not* work with any form of WinNT, I reformated
and put Win98 on it.
Only problem so far is I had to get the Win98 video driver for an IBM
to get the resolution up to 800x600.
