i have finaly spent some money on a new pc. my old 1.7ghz p4 is starting to look a bit dated.
so i have gone for a
Dell Dimension XPS Gen-4
Pentium 4 3.40GHz, 800FSB, 2MB cache
1024MB PC-4200 Dual Channel DDR2 533MHz
160GB (7200rpm) Serial ATA Hard Drive with 8MB DataBurst
256MB ATI Radeon X850XT Platinum
19" TFT screen
and now the luck bit. Delivery should take 7-10 working days. day 10 will be Lan Friday. EEK.
so everybody cross your fingers for me :)
:thumb:
Yeeeehaaaaa!
Good luck with the delivery, and most importantly with moving CS over to the new system! ;-)

great news
Wait for parcel force to leave it behind the bin, or throw it over the fence into your back garden if you're out.. :blink:
In the long run it is best to upgrade to the onsite dell technician package. When i bought my dell the return to base package was ok but very clumbersome. Make sure if you have a bit of spare cash when the letter comes through asking you to extend your warranty do so as its really worth it! Nice specs tho arm! I am still trying to get my xeon computer fixed atm :(

We've got a witch! A witch I say, BURN HIM !! He turned me into a newt, but I got better.
Built a bridge out of him !
See if he's made out of wood, or stone.
Seeif he weighs the same as a duck !!
just gone for the 1 year warranty. extra year cost £160. so i dumped that and upgraded to graphics to a ATI X850XT. if/when it breaks. it will be time to upgrade. extended warranties seem the biggest cone going, unless you need a lot of help with software.
