FWIW, I had to purchase 6 computers for work. I talked to a local IT company who suggested Dell earlier this year. We purchased 6 Dimension 3000's. Dell just came in and replaced all 6 cooling fans and processors (P4's) because the machines were acting real slow. Granted this was on a network but the network was just converted to CAT 6e. The tech that came out said he's been replacing the processors on many of these machines. Not sure if it is a Dell problem or an Intel problem. Good part was they were there the next day and seem to work fine now!

That FatWallet is a good wintertime addiction when I am not fishing. The only problem is I find myself buying things I really don't need because the deals are so spectacular.I have also gotten alot of free fishing magazines off of the free stuff section of that site. I second the recommendation of Dell, upgrade the 90 day warranty, I believe they are running a special on the warrantys now, a rep called and offered me $50 off a three year yesterday.

I'm a network admin with 80 dells, and 25 other pc's. 90% of my time is spent on the other PC's. We have exclusively ordered dells for some time now, and will continue to do so.
