For just under $2200

Another person whose loaded, blimey, dark blizzard was just talking about $3000 computers.
I don't think we could really tell how good value for money that is without seeing what actual components u r getting eg make and model stuff. (Or u could just specify where u getting it from) And no monitor... that bites.

Personally, I would get one with less RAM, because Dell charges a premium for installing RAM. Get one with 256 and then install more. You will save money by doing that. Also look through their gaming series (XPS) refurbed.

Go to Dell's website and look through their refurbished stuff. I just got a killer deal.

Cool thx for the info guys, but someone I know personally said that the dells were becoming crap but I was skeptical. So anybody heard about any problems with dell? Thx
