There is always one ....

I can't comment on pricing being in UK, nor on the 2400 which I've never
seen, they are very in rare in UK, I'd like to have one.

The 1400 is a superb, robust machine, knocks the spots off any 5300 or 190 -
why go for a 190 - pre power PC ?

The build quality, screen, keyboard, ability to have a CD, etc. etc. make
1400 a far better machine.

Given there is minimal price difference, the 1400 wins for me.

The 3400 is nice but I was never a huge fan - similar in form to the
5300/190.  Faster than the 1400s and had CD and floppy as well as built in
modem and Ethernet cards.  They are probably a better buy now with their
higher RAM limits for example.

Finding Ram for any of those machines isn't always easy, so get as much as
you can included.
