Go up one level in this thread


Just ordered this system tonight.
I got the base system + floppy drive($5) + 256MB DDR extra($75).  Grand total is
$579, including shipping.

Stay tuned for the return of ManvsMachine(C) on ICC :)  Since I'll be on a new
hardware platform, I'm going to restart the entire project from the beginning.
