Is this a good deal?

2x Celeron 1.7ghz
Gigabyte GA-6VTXD Dual Socket 370
Samsung 80GB 7200rpm
1024MB PC133 RAM

All that for $568 USD? Worth it?

Why you'd want a dual Celeron is beyond me, but yes, that comes out about right.

2x Celeron 1.7ghz - $200
Gigabyte GA-6VTXD Dual Socket 370 - $100
Samsung 80GB 7200rpm - $115
1024MB PC133 RAM - $120

You'd actually get better performance out of a single PIII than dual Celerons though... and it'd be a bit chepaer.

You'd be better off buying from canada, IMO.

Here's a list of places in QC http://www.geekstreet.ca/links.php?op=viewlink&cid=5&min=640&orderby=provinceA&show=5

Well whatever is better for ftp/file/hl/lan server, which is currently running off my 700mhz Celeron, 640Mb pc133 and assorted harddrives.
