I still get $399 but hey I guess I am lucky and don't get charged tax. I think if you read the original post the machine is being used in an office, so I don't think the need for speakers would really be necesary, and I just plain feel bad if they need to have a telephone modem.

Oh my people.....it's dell.com here not FVCKING rocket science.[/quote]
Well FVCK me, you're right!
$399 with a 15" analog and $448 with a 17" analog. That's a tough deal to beat. And it's not like it's really breaking the budget. It just depends if you're in a state with sales tax that also has a Dell store.
Suckers wanna charge you an extra $20 just to get an optical mouse, but other than that, not bad. I think less than a year ago, Dell was still only giving 128MB with their cheap systems, but 256MB will at least work with Office XP. It doesn't have a CD-R, but I suppose that type of person isn't going to deal with many things too big to email. It doesn't have a printer.
I would really consider getting the 2-year on-site for another $49.

Thank god someone with brains......people need to realize it's not an awesome machine here...and if you really want i'm sure you can put together something cheaper, but do you really want to take the time, plus everyone forgets the cost of the OS, and most business' want you using that especially small business. I think for most people this is a very good deal, with very little hassle involved, and I would definately go with the 2 year onsite if it was me. I thought this would be a good recomendation for what the original poster here was looking for....
Dell 2400 is 845GV chipset while Dell 3000 is 865GV.
For non-gaming web-surfing, word processing, excel, etc. is there any difference?
Also, what's the difference between the regular celeron and celeron D (if rated at the same speed, would a non-gamer notice a difference? Or does the Celeron D just overclock better in a non-Dell system?)

LOL.
I have several gaming rigs, and I surf the Internet on an Emachine T2862.
Works fine for what its for. Came with monitor speakers etc. Quiet and mid case.
I bought mine for $350 No rebates. Works fine, Celeron D.

The default is a CD-ROM, but they have one of those "free upgrade" deals where you can choose from a CD-RW or DVD-ROM drive. And it's the same price, $399 + tax, if applicable.
I have to admit, this wows me. I had written off Dell as more expensive than HP/Compaq, but I guess it turns out there are some situations where Dell sprints ahead.
That "old addage" is not true at all. eMachines are just fine. Maybe not Apple or IBM grade, but on the level with Dell and HP/Compaq.
After Thanksgiving is Black Friday, where everything is on sale, so rebates and sales probably got the prices you see up there.
I've owned several Dells in the past and never had any problems. Do you guys think that standard 90 day warranty is enough?
Also, any problems with that FP153 LCD screen? How is it's picture quality?

You private messaged me to call me "dumb"... are you kidding? What, are we in fifth grade?
Not noticing some random deal buried within the Dell website is bad luck, not dumb. I was simply in a rush to respond, out of concern that somebody might take your ridiculous advice.
No, what's "dumb" is recommending a $400 Celeron system from Dell.
I bought a E-machines T3101 socket 754 90nm Sempron 3100+ last week for $400-150MIR = $250 no monitor at CC...
Very pleased. I think it could use a little more RAM. Only 192megs after the Bideo robs 64megs.
