I would build it myself, or have someone (Ambush!) build it for me.  I'm generally don't like proprietary equipment (dell, compaq, e-machine, etc) as upgrading becomes a real pain.

my 2 cents
Luck is better than skill anyday! The more skill I get, the luckier I get!

Snauz as your older brother I am giving you this advice, Get a JOB! without a job asking these gentle soul at Amush is'nt going to help you. Think 'I need Cash, I need Cash....<fades>' and get a job.
But that dell does sound good.

Don't make me whip out my BOFH hat on you.  Old school habits die really hard and no one has called me gentle in a very long time.  What was your (l)user name again?

Too bad you were standing in that puddle of water.  Oh and watch out for that...  Too late, I hadn't fixed that floor tile yet.  I just go out of the computer room and call the paramedics.

Wouldn't you know it, as soon as the door closed the Halon went off.  Must have been some kind of malfunction in the fire sensors.

You ought to know PFY that none of the Halon supression handle actually work in the computer room nad that the doors to the computer room can only be open from the outside.

Someone needs to read some more of the BOFH handbook.

OK, so maybe the ancient BOFH was the one that took us off track.

Snoz, get cash, then buy.  But in the meantime, check pricewatch, and shop NewEgg.Com and ZipZoomFly.Com for great prices!  I spent a week shopping, then finally ordered what I wanted.

This act of repair is commonly referred to as "percussive maintenance".
