    1. What actually comes in the $729.99 box? What do I still need to purchase?
    2. How much does it typically weigh?
    3. Is a screen included?
    4. Can it support 1333 FSB?

    Firstly, where did you find one for $729.99?
    I'm assuming you're referring to the Asus C90s barebone, so...

    1. it comes with everything but the HDD, CPU, ram, OS and maybe GPU (depends on the reseller)
    2. yes, always
    3. no, but the C90P will i think. It's not yet released.
    Check out this website for more info.

    What comes in the box? I dunno since you did not provide a link to the page your buying from.

    Seriously - Give us a link

    It doesn't weight much at all, if you have issues go lift some weights at the gym and come back when you can handle the c90 you little weeny man.

    Seriously - it doesn't weigh much and there are actual weight specs on every resellers page I have ever seen.

    Yes the screen is included

    Seriously - its included

    No it does not support 1333mhz FSB or any of those new cpu's its an older chipset, like Emporium said the C90P has support for them tho since its a newer chipset.

    Seriously - Just get a e6600 and be happy, or wait for the C90P

    edit: ridiculous
