IBM PC 300PL

IBM PC 300PL

WHAT'S HOT: At $2099, the IBM PC 300PL is the most affordable system on the Power Chart. A 13GB hard drive and an Iomega Zip 100 drive provide ample space for data storage. IBM bundles its own ViaVoice dictation software and Lotus SmartSuite as well.

WHAT'S NOT: We had varying degrees of success reaching representatives during our anonymous calls to tech support. When we did get through, the technicians were generally knowledgeable but sometimes sounded impatient.

WHAT ELSE: This midsize tower from IBM includes a built-in ethernet connection. It offers two open bays and five open expansion slots. The system's PC WorldBench 98 score of 232 is average for a PIII-500 machine running Windows 98.

BEST USE: The PC 300PL would work well as a speedy, low-priced system for business users in a networked office.
