...buy first ask questions later
Does dell use propietay RIMM's in their machines (only their "special" memory works in the machine and none from 3rd party vendors)
Can you access the BIOS in dell machines (I cannot with my old p3 dell machine)
Does the mobo in the dell machine fit the atx standard ( So I can If I want remove it and place it into another chassis)

I have called Dell and a manager has Verified that Yes ALL 5 Rebates (Total: $710) are valid if you ordered before midnight CST on the 26th.
*Remember thats only if you didnt upgrade the RAM and HDD.
If you want to know anything else let me know. I made sure to get the badge number of the guy who said it was all valid.

Morning Rossman,
Up early huh? Did you get a premonition of the outcome for this deal? Dell bankrupt as a result of issueing rebates?
Anyway, I did a rough count/estimate of how many people bought this thing. 40 thousands. How does that sound to the rest of ya?
40 000 X 710 = 28.4 million?

mine still does not have order status.
I upgraded to have black cdrw.
I ordered a Dell P4 1.8G before and at that time I did not order cdrw. I had to put a beige cdrw in it (I have more than 10 beige cdrw) and I have to say it's very UGLY.
I think extra $38 for a black cdrw is well worth the money.
just my 2 cents.

these are being liquidated for newer models that DO NOT use RDRAM. Rambus has not been a hot seller @ Dell and they know that.
