one of the sleekest case designs around." (Poly 800K7-650 received

"Buy this baby and you'll never run out of expansion options."
Polywell consistantly offers aggressively priced
machines that often cost less than equivalent machines from major
manufacturers and retailers. It's a good bargin from a company that
provides friendly and helpful service.

a mixture of high performance and reasonable price, the Polywell workstation
is a hard machine to beat.

"Fast-moving tower leads the pack."
The Dual 400MHz Intel Pentium II processors made
the 8000BS2 scream, with throughput of 8.5MB per secomd at 20 motors.
That's the best speed rating we've ever seen in Server Track-no small
accomplishment. If you want top performance, consider putting Polywell
at the top of your list.

Polywell's Poly K266Mx has a butt-ugly case but
proves that it is possible to build a powerful, expandable PC that
