                                           ---------------
Total                                 -   20500
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

A difference of 12000 !!! Thats **not** little money for me. If the prices
quoted above are high, please tell me, so that i could look for a better
bargain.
Or maybe somebody could suggest a better overall configuration with a
budget of 20-25K. The only things that i am planning to use from my old
system are my monitor and HDD.

ciao,
Amit
