How much did it cost you ? > >Pichard. Thank you for your reply. The total without tax and shipping, which includes the monitor and printer came to $1913.00. Of course I included a DVD writer and an additional 768 MB of DDR RAM. Without the printer and monitor the total comes to $1610.00 If I knocked down the DDR RAM to 256 MB it would come to $1360.00 and if I took Windows XP Home rather than Windows XP Professional, it would be $1260.00. If I just ordered the bare bones Compaq D315 (Athlon 2000+)system it would have come to $549.00 and $799.00 with the Athlon 2600+. In the meantime some of the items are back-ordered, so I am anxiosly waiting and still using my Hewlett Packard 8370 Pentium II 350 MHz 384 SDRAM. Regards Brian
