I have 2 p133 pcs at home (one running win98 for kids games, the other running linux mandrake).    can you believe buy.com was selling 512MB PC133 SDRAM for <$50 yesterday?! (it was their dealoftheday special and not the cheap stuff either).  wow!  we've come along way since I built my first pc in '91.  anyone remember VESA-LB?  I've still got a few of those motherboards... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Christopher Spence Sent: Thursday, August 16, 2001 4:19 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Subject: RE: Comment on 'Practical Oracle 8i' I just sold 5 166Mhz pentiums chips and heat sinks for $18 at show 2 weeks ago :)     "Do not criticize someone until you walked a mile in their shoes, that way when you criticize them, you are a mile a way and have their shoes."
