    DEAD w/10,000 orders in 48 mins... $750 off $1499+ Inspiron

    I do know what to do. My post was merely a rant post. I NEVER asked for your help buddy. My point was that it just seems that Dell has to make it harder on their customers. It would have been nice if Dell just included restore disks rather than have their cusomters find other ways of...

    Thoughts on Wireless and Gaming

    It seems my latency is pretty high with my new system. I was wondering why this is the case but do you guys think that having WEP enabled will kill my connection speed thus contributing to the high latency? - JOhn
