I would maybe be willing to pay that much for one if it came with a RAID 1 setup or something like that. But why couldn't they have just configured something like this with Windows Home Server? It would only come out to $20 more and be more than twice the system. Or maybe charge less. There's no reason for a computer with a sempron processor and 512 of RAM to cost that much. -------------------- QUOTE (Spectatrix @ Oct 13 2006, 09:51 PM) Holy shit, pebkac, you're awesome!
