 While I know that there is quite a number of "fly-by-day" under $3K clone 486
 dealers, the problem is "who can you trust?"

 Reviewed in today's L.A. Times "Computer File" column is Positive Corp's
 i486-25 machine, which sells for $2,999 at Price Club and Sams, as well 
 as mail order for ~200 more.  The machine includes two floppies (5.5 and
 3.5), 100Mb disk, mouse, VGA card/monitor, 128K cache, 2Mb memory, and
 Windows 3.0 and MS 4.01 >loaded< and ready-to-go.
 His review was very favorable (but did not include info like maximum
 RAM, type of hard-disk, expansion capabilities, etc.).  Positive's phone
 number is (818) 341-5400.
