A hard drive (at > least 40 megs) Monitor Mouse and some software (it would be nice to have the > mouse included, but not necessary). Call Sprite, Inc. of Sunnyvale, CA (408) 773-8888. Ask for Janet. Tell her I referred you (I don't get a fee, I just like her). I just bought their 20 mHz motherboard. 20 mHz 386 ELT motherboard (no cache, 1 32 bit slot, 0k) $600 2 mb bank interleaved memory board $350 (8 mb $964) 16 bit VGA card $170, VGA mono monitor $75 Archive internal 60mb QIC $250 AT case/ps $90, kbd $35, 2s/1p/1g port card $25, floppy drive (1.2 or 1.44 mb) $68. AT hd/fd controller $100, 40mb disk $320 I don't know about the mouse, but I think it's around $50. Their warranties seem to be for a year -- at least that's what I got on the above stuff (although I didn't get the video or hard disk subsystems from them). They are very helpful and friendly people. Like most of the importers around here, their prices tend to change from shipment to shipment.... Please don't write me asking for more info, as I'm moving and won't be able to respond. If you have anymore questions, call Sprite. -seg
