Hey Everyone -
Been thinking about getting a new system... I would like to build but $$ is an issue! Basically I would have to have all the cash in hand for a new system to build. That's why I have been looking at the Dell Demension XPS system Dell Demension XPS. (Dell's financing avalibility will allow me to pay for it when I have the money)
Here is the system I have been looking at. Mostly the 'stock configuration':
[*] P4@3GHZHT w/800FSB
[*] 2GB DDR @ 400MHZ
[*] 128MB GeForce FX 5200 TV-Out
[*] Sound Blaster Audigy 2
[*] 120GB ATA 7200 RPM
[*] 16x DVD-ROM Drive
[*] 48x CD-RW Drive
[*] 3.5 in Floppy Drive
[*] Int Intel Pro 100 Ethernet
[*] 19 in M992 Monitor
Anyone have one of these systems? Can anyone tell me anything about the specified machine aka Motherboard, RAM Video Card, HD, Monitor? Is there somewhere I could get a better machine for my money? Monthly financing options are pretty much a MUST. I am definetly not afraid to build my own machines (I have built 2)as I said it's an issue of money.
I would really like to go with the new AMD stuff like the A64 but Dell doesn't offer any AMD processors... Anywhere I can customize a system with an A64?
My current rig is quite old so even a middle ground AXP system would probablly be a step up. What do you guys think? Should I just wait it out save up some more cash? I have also been looking at Dell's notebooks.. One of those might be a possibility.

Perhaps.. *gasp* Alienware?
