RIP. I had a 233MHz MMX system that I bought in Feb. 1998 that was working just fine till about a month ago--still is, as far as I know, but it's on a shelf since I built my franken-computer.
Oh, you want advice. Ummm I guess it depends home much $$ you want to spend and how self-reliant you want to be for tech support. You could put together your own (I'm sure you could score some help putting it together), but you'd kind of be on your own for tech support. Otherwise, I'd say look at the low-end stuff from the usual suspects. Any vendor is capable of delivering a lemon, but I personally would recommend IBM or Dell. Gateways have been inconsistent for me over the years, but a lot of people swear by them. Just remember, they all suck!
