Another Dell deal

Not a bad price for anyone after one of these:

It is one of these "one day only" offers but others will be along in due course.

Good price, but the £50 delivery charge Dell normally slap onto it takes the **** a bit.

Std features says it has a P4 with 1Mb cache but then has a Celeron as chosen processor.
P4 is extra £110.
Typical Dell confusion - but sometimes they **** it up the other way

Yeah, after the fiasco last time I shan't be buying anything from Dell. I have a huge dual Opteron part-built now anyway

We get loads of freebees from Dell, PDA, cameras, laptops (if I really push hard), SD cards, etc. etc.

We have however spent about 500k in the last year.
