391173 2005-09-27 02:24:00 $400 - $450 each for #1 and #2
Not much over $800 or $900 for #3

It all depends what you're willing to pay, though. I bet my opinion differs vastly from everyone else here.

391174 2005-09-29 04:21:00 Come on Guys, help me out here. No one else can tell me except pixeldust? :horrified zahmad (8963)
391175 2005-09-29 04:29:00 hmmm im no expert on computers but i would say for 1 maybe $300 2 350-400 and 3 maybe $600? thats just what i would pay the ram is horrible in 1 and 2 and 1.83 ghz isnt slow but it isnt fast... (note: i dont know much about comp prices especially second hand so if u want just ignore me.) CorbinH (37)
391176 2005-09-29 04:29:00 1: 350 max
2: Doesn't give details of board etc but does have all the software so same
3: That third one, hmmm, 250Gb HDD I presume you mena, and DDR2? And an FX1400 Quadro? A small fortune I would imagine. Not entirely sure what the Quadro is worth, Google says £499.

391177 2005-09-29 08:51:00 Thanks guys, 3 sold for $1000NZ. Anyone else on #1 & #2? zahmad (8963)
391178 2005-09-29 10:41:00 $1000 is a good deal for #3. If only people sold computers like that as cheap as that down here, I wouldn't have to spend countless hours trying to make whatever POS my non-tech friends buy perform like a real computer. Greven (91)
391179 2005-09-30 05:55:00 Thanks guys, 3 sold for $1000NZ. Anyone else on #1 & #2?
You want to give us a link to that? I find it hard to believe it sold for that with a 3.2 Ghz CPU, 250Gb HDD and a Quadro FX1400....

391180 2005-09-30 08:12:00 am i right in assuming the graphics card is about 1k itself?? :horrified Sleepy (7202)
391181 2005-09-30 09:47:00 estimated
2gb ddr2 = 480
fx1400 = 1100
3.6cpu = 700
250HD = 220
around $2500 worth of bits if brought new
