i'm thinking of getting the dimension 2400 becuase it includes everything just 299 bucks anyone find a better buy? or something good but withing the price range of 300-350
yo dude, i have a 2400 and its well worth the money. Trust me. The only problems with DELL computers is the fact that if u want to upgrade, you have to buy the parts from DELL. Anyways, I say u should get it. ^_^
building would likely be out of the question, you'd spend too much on hardware... try to go for an a64 hp offers them... other than that no clue
Nope not true 1. it needs more memory for photoshop or gaming 2. theres an integrated videocard dont expect much grafical power (or slow gaming) it's Your choise :unsure:
I say wait until you can get the best coupon and discounts. I know people who have gotten Dell's for $75 dollars with 17" LCD's and p4's at 3.0 Ghz (plus more). Just look out for the deals; usually I spot them over at the Anandtech Hot Deals forum.

i have the 2400. i have a radeon 9250 256 mb video card with 756 mb of ram in it and it runs FINE. just make sure to keep a box fan behind teh tower to keep it from overheating but other than that, stock to 2400 sucks ass. only game that doesnt lag with a stock 2400 is sc. diablo, wc, wow all lag like hell. but i have upgraded it since stock so i dont have that problem now
Dell is always a good choice to buy computers. I got a inspiron 9100 and a dimension 8400 and they both work fine. I'd suggest you get the dell 4700 since its a well balanced machine and you can update to a nvidia geforce 6800 when you get enough money.
