Top 10 Value PCs

Low processor prices should soon translate into lower-priced desktops; check out the current Best Buys on systems from Dell and ABS.

  

New entries on this month's value chart include Premio's Apollo 815EP at number five: This $999 system includes Intel's LANDesk Client Manager, Microsoft Office XP Small Business Edition, and lots of expansion room. Sys's TaskMaster 950D, the first system we've tested that comes with a Duron-950 processor, hits the chart at number seven.

Also Of Note

IBM's new Netvista X40 unites a space-saving all-in-one PC with easy-to-use management software. This sleek, black system comes with a PIII-1000 processor and runs Windows 2000. Bringing together a 15-inch flat-panel monitor and a tiny case, the NetVista X40 will look great on any desktop. Unfortunately, its integrated design means that expansion is not a possibility. Like other all-in-one systems, the X40 performed below average on our PC WorldBench 2000 tests, earning a mark of 168.
