Its not letting you take off the printer anymore.

Yup. They fixed it. Deal is now DEAD.


NO, not yet I was wrong, if you click customize it BEFORE you add it to the cart you can take the printer off, then in your cart change the quanity to 2. Sweet deal.

Must customize the package before you put it in your cart to remove printer.

Just go with the 3000. Only $100 more, gets you 512MB RAM, DVD-ROM & CD-RW, and includes the 720 for free. Worth it to me.

Comes to $677.21 for both computers shipped (using $35 coupon and including tax).

Deal is back on.

Must change quantity of systems to 5, this will get rid of printer. Then change quantity back to two. Or keep it at five :)

well at this speed i dont imagine ill be making this into a gaming machine... but adding a graphics card with tv out to turn it into a pvr woulda been nice... wonder if i can get a cheap good quality tv output pci card
i also sprung for the $10 ir remote control, and selected free recycling of my old computer.

if they want to pick up some of my old cases for free... let em.
gotta get rid of the old quantex p100

How did you get to the 3000? I didn't see it listed at that page.

I just went to FW and click on their Dell link. From there just navigate like normal to the 3000. $332 for a somewhat loaded 3000 isn't bad at all! Includes the printer... but doesn't cost anything extra.

Confirmed! Just pick up two of them for $371 (tax, $35 coupon). Also used FW to save an extra $11.13. Can't beat a $185 computer!

Deal dead -- they made the printer "free" and tacked on the extra $50 per system. :(

Yup. I'm almost glad. Looks like they had a hard time fixing this, someone got fired today :)
