lol, if you're serious... and you can trust this guy - then its a good deal

i assume that cost is a big issue, otherwise you'd be getting a new, real rig?

its amazing what you can get for 500 bux these days - nice new system - with decent cpu and ram etc etc

I'm not sure why the shipping is so high, but the e-mail they sent to Andy said that's their standard rate for a tower. I thought it was high too, but I won't pay sales tax. Am looking at the total cost. Do you think it is reasonable or not?

Thanks...Greybeard

I bought top of the line in 1996, for $2700!!! This time, I just want something adequate for home use, internet, word-processing, games, etc.

I trust Andy; he seems to know his stuff and has bought from this company before. However, I have only worked at this company for 10 weeks and don't know him real well.

It sounds like your buying a used system.

Is that $26.21 a month?

This is out of the Global Computer catalog. I think that I got a small price break because of our IT guy's relationship with them and previous orders. Their web site is globalcomputer.com. You can order a catalog there or price a new sustem if you wish....Greybeard
