Hi Guys, My desktops have all been whiteboxes except back in the PC, XT and AT days when they were "true blue" (as in IBM) and a single Compac 486 DX50 that really kicked butt. I have had good luck with Compaq and Gateway notebooks, bad luck with a Toshiba. But, as the man said, I haven't had a new one in 6 years.
