How's the 2D on the Rage? This would be an office machine, 3D performance doesn't matter, reading text all day does. Can't talk 'em into LCD yet though.

I can't speak from experience on the Rage, but ATI's 2D is usually great quality. All ATI cards I have ever had always had good 2D quality.

ATi 2d is great and there is alway that AGP slot for future expension..

Can someone be kind enough to PM me the $100 off Dell system coupon if they are not gonna use the coupon? My son always nagged at me for a new system to replace his old Pentium 200 system.

 

[Go Terps]

I too would a appreciate a code if someone has one they aren't going to use...

just a poor college kid

 

[BMdoobieW]

I would also appreciate a DELL coupon code if anyone has one they are not using. My PM's are on. Thanks!

be warned. Rebates uncollectable. Use double memory instead

Do you care to share why you think the rebates are uncollectable?

because it's a scam. noone have collected rebates from optiplex deal back in april. They are sending voided
checks to some on deals in Jan.

 

[Luden]

where did dell send out the code? (email/ postal mail?).

thanks
Luden

 

[bit]

dell sent out one-time-use $100 coupon code to randmom users via mail. so unless someone gives it to you..

 

[drgeoffrey]

One more request for an extra coupon code - PM me if you don't want it!!
Thanks!

 

[MSAgent]

could some one also PM me with the coupon code? thanks!!

 

[EvilYoda]

If anybody else is still checking this thread with an extra coupon, I just realized that this might be better for my g/f than building her a new one...

Please PM me if you have one, I'll even compensate you partially for it.

 

[avacado]

If anyone has a extra one. PM me please.

 

[DaPoorGuy]

Looks like they're 400Mhz bus..

Also, if anyone else has any of those coupons lying around, PM me? My P1-200 is fighting valiantly to stay alive, but i think it's on it's last legs... =( Any help would be greatly appreciated.. =)

 

[ElFenix]

woot, sister needs a new computar

EDIT: anyone else think that steven guy moves his hands and fingers around far too often and quickly?

 

[Jugernot]

Yes this is a 400MHz CPU, but the board is 533MHz capable. It's an 845E Intel board... Take a look at the specs:

Ok, next question, those who have gone for 256m of ram in the 4500 in previous deals, did you get 1 (256) stick or 2 (128)s? Since they charge $20 more for a single stick over in the servers than two of the same total capacity, I'm guessing the latter. With only two DDR slots on the board two 128's seem less than ideal.

Don't like the sounds of the rebate, but gambling for $100 using a $36 stick as the bet, well... I mean if you go for the memory you're getting $36 worth of product at most (as of Crucial's prices today) and if you want to go beyond 256 you're stuck trading/selling one of the sticks. Stupid decisions always get in the way.

If anyone still have a coupon code... Planning to buy this tomorrow morning. Email enabled in profile if anyone feels like Santa

I dont think dell would scam all of us.. They r too reputable of a company to screw up like that.. Imagine Cnet and zdnet news posting dell denying 10000s of customers $100 rebate that EVERYONE knows about..
400MHZ - GARBAGE!!! I am upset of ordering this now.. Maybe I will swap CPU later

 

[IgoByte]

I get $589.00 for the basic configuration...
