Ok, way not truck related, but does anyone have a dell coupon code I could use to pick up a new desktop? I'm looking at either a dimension 3000 or 5100. I'd like to order today if possible. THanks!

 

Every couple weeks Dell has been running a $750 off $1500 laptops. But I'm not going to tell you where to find the deals cause I'm mean like that. Just want you to know not to settle for less

Are you sure you want a dell. Thats all we have at work and they totally suck. End up rebooting them at least 3 or 4 times a day. When I was at school a lot of people didn't like them either. Thats just me, haven't had good experience with them. Good luck.

 

Being one that used to run computer labs and did technician work as well as currently doing IT...I would not recommend anything other than DELL to anyone...Course, I would also not recommend buying the "specials"....expect to spend close to $1000 for a computer...you get what you pay for, so go to Dell.com and customize a desktop to your needs...If you don't know what your needs are, call Dell up and talk with a rep...

As far as having to reboot your systems as work...it is 99% a software issue...not hardware...

 

My IS/IT guy at work recommends Dell's and that's all we buy now. I have a buddy who works for a large software company as a programmer and he recommended them. I have my idea of what I need and they can fill it. I just want to take advantage of everything that's out there. I've priced out 3 systems that will work. All 3 will make my old pc look like a turd. It's been so long since I've built one that I'm not familiar enough to know what is good anymore. I don't know the benefit of the p4 w/ ht over the p4 over the celeron D over the....

 

Your IT guys can explain the differences but dont get the celeron

Dell does a fine job for a mass produced PC. Can you get better? Yes. Are compaqs, HPs, gateways any better? No.

The optiplex and precision lines are more reliable than the Dimensions but only because they dont drop the newest hardware in those lines.

You'll be as happy with a Dell as any other computer brand.

 

Thats what I figured, we usually just vent at Dell since it only happens on their computers and not the others we have.
