If all this isn't enough, you'll also find one of the two USB ports mounted conveniently on the front panel. When it comes to the motherboard and internal components, though, you'll have a hard time finding any differences to many rival systems. This has five PCI slots, one AGP connector and one AMR riser slot, with all but the AGP slot and two of the PCIs free. The graphics card is a Guillemot 3D Prophet with 32Mb display memory. Output is sent to a 19in NEC HR19 monitor, capable of handling resolutions up to 1600x1200 at a 75Hz refresh rate.
Picture quality is great, and an onscreen menu is controlled by a single button and rotary dial.
NEC's modem is a US Robotics V.90 model, while another PCI slot houses an Aureal Vortex 2 sound card. The four-channel speaker system consists of four satellites and a subwoofer. The other important components are a keyboard, Logitech wheel mouse and a copy of Microsoft's Works Suite. Five blockbuster DVD video titles are also included. All rights reserved.
