Laura did it beet. Its all her fault. But as Goddie advises, these little trangressions can be overlooked from time to time, at least by the more enlightened amongst us, as long as they do not become too frequent and tiresome.

210421 2004-01-28 05:40:00 The presentation of these computers is the ultimate in "commodity" marketing . Just inside the front door there's a pallet of cardboard cartons, with a small sign on a post: "Dell computers $999" .

I'd say it will be a great buy for anyone who goes out with the idea: "I'll buy a computer today" . It's only freaks and geeks who need to know anything about the internals . (And some of them would be better off bnot knowing) . :D

210422 2004-01-28 06:07:00 Yes Beetle, you did...

And because it's not in chronological order, even I find it confusing by now (with confession for a hand in starting it)

Some laughs along the way, though.

And a word to Godfather...Mr Laura was delighted. He says you've given him a few tips.

Just checked up on this thread I posted last night for the first time. Man did it do a full circle or what!! And only 10% of the replys relate to the original comment.
Is interesting and entertaining though
Thanks guys

210425 2004-01-28 07:26:00 I am also sitting here chuckling away at some of these posts, quite enlightening . LOL But going back to the original thread about the Dells, I am one who CAN'T build her own puter, and no inclination to, (I would rather go pull the car to bits when it needs a new clutch or box, ) the parts are bigger, and I dont' need glasses for the car .

Seriously, for someone who is using a 500 athlon puter, read old, surely the Dell would be better . I am on limited budget, not into gaming, except yahoo or msn games, use Word etc, and do a little photo editing after I have been playing with digital camera, and burn cd's (doing backups from the music cds I have} At the moment I can't even access flybuys . co . nz as the flash they use, needs more ooph than this old puter has . Now after saying all that, the Dell would most likely do me for years? How bad is it having intergrated video cards etc?

210426 2004-01-28 07:40:00 Thanks for bringing the post back to normality supergran.
I also have a question along those lines, I have a 5 year old hp6320 333mhz with a nvidia tnt 2 64 I put in a year or two back. Will I be able to put the graphics card into the dell machine? I play the following games on my current machine so would therefore want to play the same ones on the dell. Would I even need the graphics card?
Games are
ms train sim
ms flight sim 2000
sims
ms combat flight sim
israeli air force

Cheers for the feedback

If you bought a new computer you would be far better off buying one with a modern video card rather then swapping the out of date tnt into the warehouse model .
