Ultra UV Wizard Black ATX Mid-Tower Case
Chaintech 7NJL6 Motherboard
-40-Pin UDMA-100 IDE Cable
- 34-Pin floppy Disk Drive Cable
- User?s Guide
- Driver CD
AMD Sempron 2800+ Socket A CPU
Ultra 256MB PC2100 DDR 266MHz Memory
Ultra Copper Base Cooling Fan upto XP 3000+
Ultra X-Connect 400W ATX Power Supply
Aopen 107 keys Windows 98 Keyboard (Black)
Aopen Wheel Mouse PS2 (Black)

Looks hot to me, quite a few rebates, but still pretty hot.

LMK what everyone thinks, as this is whole "Hot Deals" section is new to me.

Edit
The website says "usually ships within 7 to 21 days" This may cause rebate headaches for some, if it does in fact take that long to ship. My last order from TigerDirect took 3 days to ship, and that was over a weekend. I dont anticipate many problems with this.

Thanks JafCo for bringing that to our attention.

This is a really good deal if you 1) Have a use for a Sempron 2800+ system and 2) Have the patience and fortitude to follow up on your rebates.

Seems hot. $150 in rebates, but you can just add a budget graphics card, floppy, and basic 60-80 Gig HDD, and you have a decent basic system for a non-enthusiast family member, etc. for under $200.

Forgot to add: $26.00 Shipping to the east coast, UPS Ground.

One thing that is a bit worrisome: It says "usually ships within 7 to 21 days," and if you add ground shipping across the US, it could actually be 30 days before you get it, but the rebates have to be sent in within 30 days of purchase. I guess if I order this, I'll cancel it if it hasn't shipped within 12-14 days or so.

Thanks for the heads up, Edited OP.

$26.00 shipping is reasonable, but considering the lead time and the initial outlay of $276, I'd pass as there are better systems out there without rebates.
