I asked whether I should buy a name-brand PC instead of building it by
myself a few days ago. Sorry that I'd to bring up similar topics on a PC I

It seems a very good deal, and I can just put in a new faster processor (up
to 500mhz) when it's cheaper. Does "Dual Independent Bus Architecture" mean
it can have duel processor? Any caveat you can find? The only problem is
it's all sold out in Best Buy here.

Thanks,
