DO NOT GET A DELL

DELL JUST SUK I HAVE ONE RIGHT NOW THEY GIVE YOU THE CHEAPEST PARTS EVERY AND CHARGE TWICE WHAT IT COSTS.

The system in my sign costs right now about 1550.When you go to dell

1.Will have to wait couple of weeks for it.
2.Will OVERPAY LIKE CRAZY.

The same system that i got in my sign costs about $2300 from dell.

Now do the calculations.

Another example memory

2gb they charge 110 BUT they system allready has one gb

from newegg.com

You can get very good DDR2 800 from CORSAIR XMS2(and the DELL has ONLY 667 and probably for a crappy company) for about $180
Look at this for example:

http://configure.us.dell.com/dellsto...XPS700B1&s=dhs

The cpu part

They charge 300 for conroe e6600

But the system allready has a 930 which costs 179 at NEWEGG.com

so $300+$179=$479

Now from zipzoomfly.com you can get the e6600 for 339 and from newegg at 379

So now $479-$339=140

140 dollars in you pocket ONLY ON ONE PART
