I am looking into buying a quicksilver dual 1.33 for 900 dollars and i wanted to know if they ship it with a graphics card ram and harddrive from powerlogix.... Do they? or do they just ship the mother board and chips and you have to buy most of the stuff for it? thanks for the response!

The Powerlogix Dual CPU Quicksilver is an upgrade. Its just the card with the two CPUs on it.
You need to have the Quicksilver already (all of it except the CPU, though most people will have that too).
It is a processor upgrade. Not a complete machine.

Yep Komisar, just the processors I'm afraid...

I would advise against buying a machine just for upgrading, it never works out as good as you think it will. You are better off getting the best new machine you can afford, complete with warranty...

I thought that last comment was rude, but then I realized that there is no chance in hell that you'll find a cheap Cube, least of all at 1Ghz.
