i'm getting a computer for my friends family. here are the stores that are close to us, frys, circuit city, best buy and microcenter.

any better deals online?

at fry's i found the following deal.

E2180
2 GB (forgot type) ram
320 GB HDD
$399

E2180
3 GB DDR2
500 GB
$499

E4500
2 GB PC2-5300
320 GB
$404 after mail in rebate.

i'm leaning toward the E4500 since it's faster correct. What would you recommend? Also any better deals at those local stores?
