P3s are a dime a dozen, still, so paying a premium for

Sadly, I have long had a soft spot for Pentium Pros. Which probably
means that I'll pay through the nose for one some day.
I wish that I still had one of the Compaq ProLiant 2500s that were dual
P-Pros. (I don't know what they had for an expansion bus.)
It's hard to beat old Compaq stuff. I've got
an old Deskpro tower with a
P3 (upgraded with a slocket to 1.4GHz). 440BX chipset Nice thing--the
expansion cards are on a slide-out sub-chassis. Heavy bugger, though.
I liked some of the old HP towers as well for ease of access.
