[brlug-general] Wal-Mart

[Jeff Crosby]

Hey, I was just wondering if anyone had purchased one of those operating
system free computers at WalMart that had been discussed about a month or so
ago.  As I recall a number of people had thought about the idea.  Also, is
anyone familiar with the Emachines that are available.  I saw where you can
get one for $400 and that includes a 17" monitor and XP, not that I need the
monitor but I don't think I could build one for that price.  I wonder how
much they would knock off if I said I didn't want the monitor and operating
system.  Hmm.  Any thoughts or ideas or suggestions?
