mrn8 Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 It's not too bad. I've gotten better deals, though, when Dell does their big Dell Outlet sales. There could be one coming up the end of this month, to boost their 2nd Quarter numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nineofus Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 2 questions: When does the sale start? With the upgrades, is this a GREAT deal or just so-so.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrn8 Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 The sale starts on the Sunday, July 17th. Upgrades: Memory - Don't do it. You can get a 512MB stick for <$50. Double hard drive - maybe worth it for convenience, but for $30 more than a 40GB, you are looking at the 160GB range if you were to upgrade it seperately. Printer - Don't know, it depends on the printer they are bundling. CD Burner - Not a bad deal. I definitely wouldn't buy a computer without at least a CD burner, but you can get a CDRW / DVD-rom combo drive for ~$30 - $40 or a DVD-R drive in the ~$40 range.

Aaron Posted July 14, 2005 Author Share Posted July 14, 2005 Wow, that's amazing.. RossMAN, looks like it's time for you to stock up your mini-best buy warehouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 Thanks for the scan mrn. 1 potential problem is that its coming from CC's custom build center. At one time this was a mandatory 1 month delay in shipping. Check with your local CC before you lay down the $$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossMAN Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 2 questions: When does the sale start? With the upgrades, is this a GREAT deal or just so-so.?For an entry level computer yes this is VERY HOT. The usual low end Dell offers comparable specs, 17" CRT (not 15" LCD) for $349 with free shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 BTW Ross, I don't have any model #s b/c its not something CC carries in-store. Sorry EDIT: Though the LCD looks like the HP VS15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
