No way is that worth 1900$. Would it have been home built, it probably would have cost like 1K.

id say about $1400 new....

After looking through the AIDA summary report, I'm not sure it gives the full picture. The machine comes with a DVD burner, infrared port, high-speed USB ports, wireless modem, and a port that connects to a DVCam. Does that change the value at all?

new? used?

documenter · 10-19-2005, 11:27 PM

It's used, almost a year old, was used as a Database server, and comes fully loaded (via MSDN) and with a transferrable 4-year warranty.

documenter · 10-20-2005, 06:47 PM

Any final thoughts given the other items I mentioned?
