Yeah, buy two of the systems and have spare parts.  With the memory
and extra disk space it is a better deal than that 200.

Now that I've proven my ignorance of Intel's Pentium line
my final question is are Pentium Pro 200's a current
item likely to be available for, say, six months and hopefully
at lower prices than $425.00?
