Question Mountain bike recommendantion

I am in the process of looking for a new mountain bike to replace my trusty, but now almost obsolete Parkpre bike

The bikes that I've been looking at are all hardtails (no rear suspension, I am a purist that way). the makes are Gary Fisher (Big Sur or Hoo Koo E Koo models), Cannondale (F600) or Kona (Cinder Cone or Lava Dome). These are all mid-range models (all under $1k). I can't justify spending over $1k on a bike and...more importantly, I can't afford to pay that much

Do any of you have any recommendations or know anything about these bikes

Thanks in advance

PS: Please don't mention the Mercedes Benz mountain bike (on their catalog). It is a nice bike, I just can't justify paying that much dough for a bike!
