Any you would want that ... why? Yuck.

If you want to make your buddies turn green with shame and envy, get a Shuttle ST20G5, stick an FX-55 or a 4000+, 2 1GB sticks of fast RAM and an ATI X800XT PE/X850XT PE (depending on the case) in there and watch their jaws drop as a computer that is a 1/3rd the size of theirs blows their suitcase-sized boxes out of the water. If you need to show off, hook up 4 monitors to the little guy while you're at it.



If speed is more important than looks, stick the stuff listed above into an SN25P case.



Not to forget the obligatory HD and optical drive, of course ... now if there only was a decent OS that would run on those ...
