Don't worry, you'll find a bunch of these on eBay in a few days from the people who bought 8-10 of these machines each. :|

Damn ... I would have bought two. Need two new Dells for my dad's office.

It wasnt that great of a deal when you really think about it guys. The price was bloated.

At first I was a bit sick to my stomach I missed it. But your not saving THAT much, and its a Pentium (not exactly a killer gaming rig).

Dell XPS might not be well suited for an office environment - noisy, not very economical power-wise.

Awww yes...she does that to us all my friend...🙂

 

[BentValve]

That was a pretty good deal.

I got both emails (acknowledgement and confirmation) this morning. 😀 Now to hope it goes through.

Damn, saw the thread title and was thinking I might get one for my sister and her son. They could use a computer, and it would be less hassle than building one for them, plus they wouldn't need all the bells and whistles I would want to put in it anyway. Oh well, I guess I will just wait for the next one of these to roll around.

 

[Passions]

Pretty hot for me. I snagged one fully loaded. 🙂

It died last night. The coupon was supposed to start working at 5PM today, but it worked last night around midnight PST and the orders piled up.

The OP should really change the thread title.

That stinks...I think I spooged in my pants when I saw this thread. 🙁 Now I'm left with a mess and..."Dude, you're NOT getting a Dell!" 😛

J/K 😉

[isekii]

If anyone plans on gutting theirs, I'll be interested in the Case/Mobo/Powersupply

Totally. West Coast is the best coast.

i felt bad about the $500 deal.. but still... look at this http://www.anandtech.com/cpuch...c.aspx?i=2275&p=10

and then i was like "hehehe i dont care"


from the performance of those things, you'd HAVE to get a great deal on one to make it worth it.

 

[Shinare]

OP, please change title of thread to indicate it's demise.

 

[jpeyton]

Dell cancelled one of my two orders. Oh well, at least the one I want (with the X800XT) is still In Produciton.

now that would piss me off.

if i had gotten my order in time, i'd expect them to follow through.

they should honor those who got orders in. thats just not right.

Yeah, just too bad not everyone cares about gaming performance. 🙂 Multitasking is where it's at and P4/HT kicks the poop out of anything currently that is single-CPU based.

Well they might have intended the coupon to be one per customer.
