- I am buying two 486's for a professor at my department and
- I have been reading through bunch of magazines to find out
- what is a good system, but of course my main concern is
- to find a company that is helpful in technical support, since
- in the future my prof. is going to deal with it...
-
- Several questions I have:
- 1) Is Leading Edge D4DX2/50 a good system?
- So far the price: $2400
- 80486DX2 32-bit/50MHz, 8M ram
- 64K cache, 213M IDE hard drive, SVGA w/ .28 dot pitch, 1M video mem.
-
- 2) We want basically around 8M ram, about 150M hard drive, .28dot pitch
- SVGA monitor...
-
- 3) Reading the posts on Gateway, I see some like it, some don't... Do
- you think this a good buy? and how about their tech support?
-
- If you can help me out with buying this computer, can you email me
- at teoman@u.washington.edu? This was the first time I read this bulletin
- board and there's too much info to go through the last 700 posts with
- searches on gateway, dec, ibm ps/1 and sofort...
