Price or performance? On this month's power desktops chart, it's a toss-up between Pentium II-400 and Pentium II-450 PCs. Of the top five systems, numbers 1, 2, and 5 are equipped with the more affordable but still quick Pentium II-400. The overall Best Buy remains the Micron Millennia 400 Max, a fast general-business machine with a nice set of extras and a low price. The only newcomer to the top five is Gateway's GP6-450. It costs $272 more than the Micron, but it's a bit faster and comes with an ethernet card standard and a 19-inch monitor. Aside from the Gateway, six other new systems--all of them powered by Intel's Pentium II-450 CPU--earned spots on our power chart.
