I dont have a problem with intel chips (have a p3-733 here somewhere) but I would avoid the celeron like the plague (very crappy output for their clock speed). An athlon xp, a real p4, or even a duron is a much better chip. |

Why didnt you get that then??? It would have been a nice machine I guess. The one im getting is manufactured by Dell Australia. Is that the one you are getting Kazer0? It would be manufactured by Dell Canada though |

Aaaayyyy, there ain't no crap PC's on this site. Ask U_K, he's got the full range and should help setup a museum. 
Me, I just like to max-out any PC I have, no matter how lowly. Tweeks is still fun 4 the MIPS hobbist (12 more "sysmarks", alllllllrrrriiiggghhttt!!  ). 4 instance, I bet that P75 will just take a 100 or 133 chip if you just knew the jumpers. |

Sure I will setup a museum, send me all the old software packages you have (including the box and manuals) and I will get to work (since I already own 1 of each generation PC).

One of everything would be nice especially anything technical (cad, math, engineering, science, physics, etc)
I have been looking for Norton Desktop 2 or 3 but havnt found it (Windows 3.1 era). |

The computer store has Norton Desktop (Not sure which version) that they are going to sell on e-bay. It's old, and says "NOW WORKS WITH WINDOWS 95!" on it. |
