Dimension 3000 with Celeron D 2.4GHz, 256MB, 17" E173fp, 48x CD-ROM, 40GB 7200RPM $329AR
Dimension 3000 with Celeron D 2.4GHz, 256MB, 19" E193fp, 48x CD-ROM, 40GB 7200RPM $429AR
Dimension 4700 with P4 2.8GHz w/HT, 256MB, 19" E193fp, 48x CD-ROM, 40GB SATA 7200RPM $479AR
Dimension 9100 with P4 3GHz w/HT, 512MB, 20" 2005FPW, 48x CD-ROM, 40GB SATA 7200RPM $829AR

The first 3 have 90 day warranties, the 9100 has a 1 year warranty. The first and last ones are a little warm.

Why can't Dell make 80GB or 120GB the minimum hard drive size?

For simple word processing, internet browsing and such things, how does the intel celeron compare to the intel pentium 4? I'm looking for a simple desktop in the 500 dollar range for a friend, but something is telling me I should go with the newer processor.

If that is what you want a PC for, a Celeron will be plenty for you.

the celeron d is an awesome lil' processor, so to speak. from what i understand, it basically IS a pentium 4. it's a prescott with a 256kb cache and a 533mhz fsb.... so hopefully that helps man.
