IBM PC 300PL

IBM PC 300PL

WHAT'S HOT: A 20.4GB hard drive and Iomega Zip drive give the PC 300PL a huge amount of storage space. The system's PC WorldBench score of 232 comes within 5 points of the fastest Windows 98­based PIII-500 PC we've tested.

WHAT'S NOT: At $2559, the PC 300PL is the costliest PIII-500 system on the chart; other vendors sell comparable systems for hundreds of dollars less.

WHAT ELSE: The PC 300PL includes a built-in ethernet connection. We had varying degrees of success reaching reps during anonymous tech support calls; when we got through, techs were knowledgeable but sometimes impatient.

BEST USE: IBM's corporate appearance and brand name make the PC 300PL suitable as a presentation PC or multimedia development system for business users in a networked environment.
