I'd rather have it an AMD 64-bit then the Intel.
Keyboard and mouse dont matter. I like the ones I got.
Same with LAN and modem.
I got a dvd burner so the optical drive doesnt matter.
Dell priced this at aroun $4,700 USD :lol:
That's one hell of a system though....
Probably about half that...give or take a few hundred of course ;)
EDIT didn't see monitor, add a few more hundred lol
I'm guessing you could build it for probably 3,500 or so, maybe less
You should see this Alienware im building right now.Quote:

ya, for sure.
I can just imagine in the future with like some future operating ysstem (longhorn 2? lol) people are trying to get support on their old athlon 64 pos processor (newest at that time will be 128bit, maybe 256 lol) and they read this forum and they're like WTF this stuff is shit what are they talking about.
Then they read my post and remember the good old days. :lol:
ya, for sure.Quote:

Plus 2nd one had 1.2 TB of disc space :lol:
Holy crap! :o
What the hell do you need an 800 gb hard drive for??? Thats half the price. Get the AMD 64, that what Ive got in a Shuttle case. :D MUUUUUUCH better than any Dell. I'll never own a dell again.
I'm running two monitors one of these. And one of these. I also have a 17" just like the first two that's been in the box for three months since I bought it. :D [/b][/quote]Quote:

Can I have one? I'd happily pay shipping. :)
get one of these
or these (even better)
or if you really have 2 much cash, get one of these........
First one only has 25 ms response time. :unsure:
:-"
then get the beamer.......... itll down you another 2 G's
plus, you aint getting a bigger screen than that.......
will be great for both movies (and maybe even for you gamers, chainsawing a guy in half............ ACTUAL SIZE ;))
I use watch movies on my tv though with the s-video out. So I dont need a top of the line monitor. Just a flat screen or LCD.
You're gonna love how I got the three too :DQuote:

I was leaving the HEB (grocery store), when this sleepy eyed fellow in a van next to me asked if I had a computer. When I asked why, he said that he'd "come across" some computers and monitors and was selling them cheap. He wanted $250 a peice for the monitors but I said I'd buy three for $400 and he agreed. I think that's about $2000 worth if bought on Dell's site. :01: :01: :01:

hahaha...... that sounds like how the dutch police handles weed farms:
raid the place (well, its not really raiding like in the US, they keep it civilised), confiscate all the lamps and such, then sell all that on the police auction :P
