1. more cheaper doesnt really make any sense

2. thats obviously a gaming computer so a pentium dual core stinks for gaming and really everything else

3. dells use cheaper cases and mobos so they suck

I built my compaq for about 550, but ended up being about $680 after shipping. They seem to have some of the cheapest/best machines(besides still offering AMD and firewire on all their machines )

Ah, yes, and I'm sorry if this is flippant, but now we have discovered the nature of American retail: Build a good brand name and then use the freakin' life out of it to make as much money as possible!!!!!

Given their business success, apparently not.

So, people who need the processing power of a dual core chip but cannot afford one from the better performing X2 line should stick to single core? How silly is that. Besides, good luck finding one game that the chip is to weak to handle, usually the vs is what is limiting the gaming.
