Xi MTower (AMD Athlon 800 MHz)

This 800-MHz, Athlon-based system provides absolutely incredible performance--you'll barely be able to pull your kids away from their favorite games and DVD movies. The Xi's biggest drawback lies in its lack of software, but with the money you'll save from its low price, you can buy your own.
