actually my first PC was a dell XPS in 1996.

I loved it and it was top-notch. that was back when Dell catered to the enthusiast. It was the Cadillac of PCs.

Now, Dell is after only market share and they have fallen from where they were.

Thank you kadeshpa

I went to www.dealcatcher.com and bought Dell notebook 9300 for about $840 shipped. The original price was more than $1500, but with instant rebate of $750, the net price was a little above $750 plus shipping+tax+fees. Which is very good out of pocket cost.

Glad I could help Enjoy!

FYI, to all others, check out DigitalDeals.net and Dealcatcher.com regularly. They've really got some kick ass deals out there for electronics goodies.

Case in point, on Dealcatcher today they have a Creative 512mb mp3 player PLUS a sandisk flash drive for only $69. Not bad eh?

I've got to stop going to those sites, I'm buying too much stuff!
