Hmmm.....I have some spare x700's, of which I could stick on in here....

I know the coupon is expired, but I can't even get the desktop configuration anymore. Is this completely dead?
Thanks

There'd better be a deal like this come summer time when I'm looking to upgrade...haven't been watching the Dell deals lately so I don't know what it's been like.

 

[hofan41]

the deal is dead now. got one before it expired

If anyone just wants the 5150 and wants to sell their 2007fpw please PM or EMAIL me.

Well, the reverse is true for me. I am looking for a new machine for me and the kids.

If you are looking to sell the machine, Leave me a PM with what you want for it.

I got in on the 19" DELL 2 weeks back, so passed on this one.

Mine is in the "Testing" phase.

Ordered mine pretty late in the day sunday. Last night, it showed "will ship on 4/26". When I checked this morning, it was listed as "shipped". Go figure. Guess they had more than they thought.

 

[BadThad]

Man....HOT DEAL for some of you!

 

[cougar78]

680 bucks total after taxes shipped to me, waiting for it now so I can sell the pc

It is always better to promise little and give big . See how happy you are now that they shipped a week ahead of schedule and they pretty much knew it all the time, but it still gives them a buffer just in case. Makes you feel special though like they rushed you order just for you being you.

I love you dell! Thanks for lowering my expectations!

 

[cougar78]

damn they still show shipping on the 26th for me

 

[Ciber]

I ordered mine on saturday and it still shows the 26th also.

On the bright side, This deal just got a whole lot hotter for me!

I just called Dell and asked them how much overnight would cost and the guy said something like $150, but that he would have to cancel my order so he could charge me for the shipping upgrade... He just told me he would upgrade me for free so my order would not get cancelled .

So, what would you imagine would be reasonable to hope to sell the computer (without lcd) for?

 

[cougar78]

well I was thinking around 400ish if I find a decent pci-x vidcard maybe 500ish

Yeah, that's what i ws thinking too... 400, or 520 including my x800xl, plus shipping. Seems reasonable, maybe even rather good, considering what you get for it.

 

[Ciber]

I think i'm gonna keep the computer and use it as a server.

 

[Winchester]

Showing Shipped now. 2 Boxes.

In case anyone is looking to add a high end graphics card, you will need a new PSU. It doesn't have a PCI Express power connector and only has one molex left but is only 2 inches long. I just installed an OCZ OCZ45012U 450W in my e510 (same as 5150). They are for sale at Newegg for $59 + ship AR.

 

[RossMAN]

Mavtech,

Can you recommend a low-end PCI Express video card with DVI under $60?

 

[DoobieOnline]

Rossman, you might want to try the X300 SE. I picked one up in FS/FT for pretty cheap recently and it does a fine job.

My 5150 and 2007FPW just walked in the door, a week ahead of schedule.
