Top 20 Budget Desktops

Looking for a budget PIII-500? Check out the new $1599 Micro Express MicroFlex-5B. For an even cheaper PC, try Quantex's $1249 Celeron-based M466c.

  

If you've been holding off on buying a fast, new Pentium III system until the cost becomes more palatable, wait no longer. This month, we tested two new PIII-500 machines priced to be digestible, especially given their meaty feature sets. Of these, the MicroFlex-5B from Micro Express earned the top performance score among budget PCs running Windows 98, and its $1599 cost includes a 4X DVD-ROM drive and a capacious 18GB hard drive. For those on a leaner budget, Quantex offers the Celeron-based M466c. At $1249, it's the least expensive new system this month and features a fast DVD-ROM drive and the most room for expansion of any PC on the budget desktops list.
