I can state that I have owned a SUB500 computer for almost two years
now and am very happy with it.

As to the difference between SUB300 and SUB500, I found the prices on
both to be in US dollars and they had different computers that were
priced as the title suggested.  Maybe thats changed since I shopped
there 2 years ago.

As to SUB200, when I logged into SUB300 the first page that came up
was SUB200 with a $199 computer offered.  Then later when someone
commented on what they got on SUB200 I tried again and then got a page
saying that URL was available.  I have not yet gotten the page that
you describe???
