Do you have one? I realize I could probably do better if I spent the time to build something custom, but I do not have the know how nor the time to do all that..

I just bought it online and it's supposed to be here on March 1.

I did the obligitory google search and the reviews seemed decent.. But I spent all of 10 minutes researching.... :shake:

It's always a good idea to ask for opinions AFTER you make a purchase.

I heard it is responsible for several house fires-especially if your a Seahags fan-lol

Just kidding-sounds badass!

Right.

Bob Dole has signed the PO's to buy over 800 Dell PC's in the past 8 years, and Bob Dole is still employed and signing the PO's.

They suck.

Everyone has the time to put together a computer, takes 20 min tops to put everything together, and about 30 min to install windows.

Putting together a computer is easier then putting together a 100 piece puzzle.

If you are not going to build your own, Dell is the way I would go! JMHO

I have one. I had a similar situation, I needed a computer and didn't have the time nor the money to build something I wanted, so I opted for this. Working great so far.

If you're getting windows vista and have all the tv tuner stuff,I would have gotten 2.5G of memory instead of 1G..but you can always upgrade.

250gb harddrive
2GB DDR
7950 BFG GT videocard
19" LCD Widescreen
Windows Vista OEM


Hell check out my post in the media section


Dont buy dell, the setup I have I spent $1800.00 which came to be about 800-1000 dollars less than what I would spend at DELL. Dell is a waste of time.
