What about Dell
« on: January 31, 2003, 06:51:17 AM »
We are about to get our tax return. The one good thing about being a poor larg famy is BIG tax returns.
  I have benn seeing the stuff on tv about a Dell 2.4 gig pc for around $500 to me it sounds to good. the pc we have know is a HP p2 400mag and we have to refloormate about every other month. But back to the Dell see that you here are the pros what do you think of dell is it worth it or shoud I look esle where. The main thung about it is the price. Your thoughts please

Getting large tax returns is very poor financing.  You are giving YOUR money to the gov\'t to hold and collect interest on.  If you are getting 600 back, then have 50 bucks less per month taken out and put that money in something that will earn you interest.  Then at the end of the year if you still want to feel rich you can pull that money back out and have several bucks more in interest.  Although it\'s of course better if you leave it in there for many years to compound.

Enough of the getting back money on taxes is a waste drivel from me.

Your question was about Dell.

Dude, you\'re getting a Dell.

I have to ask one quick question.  Why do you have floormats on your computer?

If you don\'t know how to build your own system I\'d recommend a Dell.  Be sure to check http://www.gotapex.com daily to see any new Dell Deals, many with free shipping.

As For the tax return, yes its not the best way to bass your finances. I agree there. I married in to a large famly we make ends meet ( must of the time). The kidds father is a dead beet, so I do what I can. I will get about $4000.00 this year. It\'s just nice to have money once a year that we are able get some whats instead of just getting by.
  The only thig about blulding my own is that I don\'t now about the jumpers, must every thing is plug and play, but dont you have some sonfigureation(sp) that I dont have a clue on.

Man it\'s nothing like it use to be.  I\'m kicking myself for not building my latest one.  Best thing is not only do you get the satifaction of building it yourself, but you know exactly what is in it and it\'s cheaper.

Deadbeat dads suck ass.  I\'ll never divorce my honey, but if something ever happened and we did get a divorce I\'d give my kid everything in the world.  

Sorry to hear that bro.

yeah, there\'s nothing worse than a dad that leaves a mother to raise a kid all alone. Whats worse is more than one kid. I feel bad for those mothers. Those deadbeat dads should get penalized for not pulling their weight.

The only hard part is doing the research prior to ordering the parts.  You wanna make sure everything\'s compatible and don\'t accidentally get DDR ram for a motherboard that takes RDRAM for example.

As you get more into it you\'ll start tweaking the BIOS and OS.  It neccessarily isn\'t rocket science but it\'s not something most of my friends could do either.
