CyberMax Enthusiast PIII-600

Swift PIII-600 system packs a big monitor.

WHAT'S HOT: Note: The key supplier of CyberMax has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. See our news story for more details. --Editors

Though average for a PIII-600 running Windows 98, this model's PC WorldBench 98 score of 252 is still very fast. The interior offers expansion room galore, with four open slots and five free drive bays (a Zip 100 drive occupies an additional bay). The Altec Lansing speakers crank out respectable sound.

WHAT'S NOT: Reattaching the solid, one-piece metal case can be hard. In our tests, the 8X DVD-ROM drive with software decoder wouldn't play movies until we changed the resolution to 800 by 600 (most players can change resolution automatically), and playback slowed slightly when other apps were running.

WHAT ELSE: The 21-inch CyberMax AT 398 monitor, powered by a 3dfx Voodoo3 3000 graphics card, blurred at 1600 by 1200 resolution, but text and images looked crisp at lower resolutions. At this price ($2299), CyberMax bundles Corel WordPerfect Office 2000.

BEST USE: This powerful multitasker suits small offices that need a big screen.
