Why do they hamstring themselves like that?

I looked up the specs. 32 bit vsta on a 64 bit proccy

667mhz memory on a 800MHz FSB

dual 10/100 lan when the CHIPSET provides dual gigabit

sata-150 when again the chipset provides sata-300.

WHY, Why, WHY!

I would buy these for my company this would make my job way easier, except they hamstrung the systems on every front.

/me *shakes head* and gives up on HP for another year.
