Is this an in store deal ? I am unable to find this $159.00 computer on their website http://outpost.com/ , I am locating one for $269.00 listed instead with the same specs.

Perhaps they changed the page since you visited, the price is
Quoting:$369.99 After Rebate
and it's a Windows machine.

Operating System

* Microsoft ® Windows ® XP Home Edition with Service Pack 2

It's probably the in store price. They run a special on them on Fridays. The price is usally good for three days.

They always have some sweet deals. I bought the same box a year and a half ago for $179 at Fry's, though mine came with an Athalon 2000+ processor and even had speakers, in addition to a black mouse and keyboard. I bought an extra 256Megs of ram and had a solid system for around $220.

At that price,I may have to consider it for the value cluster project. http://www.clustermonkey.net//content/view/41/33/

They only allow one per customer.

I found some barebones systems at Micro center that would work for a cluster.

I bought the Fry's box for $149 last summer and took it to Amman.
