Hello: Can some people help me out, I need to buy a PC for a Thesis project. I will be doing heavy number crunching (discrete fourier transforms) and other stuff. I think what I need is a 286 with a hard drive (about 40megs) and VGA graphics (for the graphics I need to display). A math co-processor is not necassay yet, probably in the future. I will be doing all the programming in Turbo Pascal or Turbo C. I have looked at the IBM PS/2 model 50Z (can get 40% off) MMG (from a place called HardWarehouse) and Zenith What else should I consider. Remember that this is student budget type deal (going on co-op in three weeks though) Anybody ever dealt with Hardwarehouse or MMG? Thanks for any information. Please send through EMAIL so that flames don't get tossed and stuff on the net. Not a pretty site Thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------- John W Holthaus 2000 Confederate Place Apt 503 Louisville, KY 40208 UUCP: ...!psuvax1!ulkyvx.bitnet!jwholt01 BITNET: jwholt01@ulkyvx INTERNET: jwholt01%ulkyvx.bitnet@cunyvm.cuny.edu
