Aren't you tempted to put it on a credit card, or resell it or sell what you have now?

Yes i am tempted, but I have 2 other systems to sell first. Don't have enough money on my CC to put that one on.

People are running scripts.

cpals · Mar 29, 2005

Even so, I can barely refresh a page fast enough to see the updated prices...

Atrac · Mar 29, 2005

Trying to decide on this one. The lack of a combo drive is holding me back.

*Edit* Ditched it.

cpals · Mar 29, 2005

Got lucky here... no scripts just fast clicking Should I go for it?

I really wanted 1 GB of ram, but I guess I would just have to get that on my own... I already have three DVD writers that could be put in it, so that's not a big deal.

when did this thread go from a hot deal notice to "rate my box"?

Atrac · Mar 29, 2005

I think about a week ago, maybe longer.

You can buy it for me. I'll be your secret bf

agentsmith101 · Mar 29, 2005

WHat does secret bf mean?

fiestylady · Mar 29, 2005

well, lets just say people would get jealous if they were to find out about him...plus what they dont know wont hurt...anyhow, was that a good buy or should i tell dell to cancel? please help a helpless asian girl out

tishoo · Mar 29, 2005

Sounds like a reasonable deal. Can add a DVD burner for around 40 later. Could be better, but only barely. And you'd need a script like some of the 'enthusiasts' here

(Not dissing on the script-ers, but I'm jealous!)

It's a great deal, I'd pick it up.
