If you can find one, the dual 867 that boots 9 is the best bang for the buck.

You pay a lot more for the faster ones and they do not yield that much faster performance. k On Saturday, May 31, 2003, at 06:22 PM, Jim Asherman wrote: >> i have OLD versions of all pirated software (shhh, don't >> call the software police) so i'm bummin out there. i'm going to have >> to find >> some sources because i can't afford $1000 for the new photoshop, >> another >> $1000 for final cut pro, etc., etc, i'm an unemployed graphic >> designer >> with a temp job, some savings and a good credit rating, but i'm not >> loaded >> or anything (plus i live in the SF bay area which is ridiculously >> expensive). > > I had already surmised this and that is why I am telling you refurbs > and leftovers. > Cause the new ones don't boot 9. > Jim
