Not too bad. I just bought about the same for my parents. It was around $200 minus harddrive, agp video (had onboard) and CDRW.

That could add up to $300...think you should have asked for like $325.

in todays market of 399 dells computers
most people do not have the knowledge of pcs enough
to buy what they need so 80% of them get the cheapest they can find.

so dell and others selling pcs for 399 has killed the private markets of selling i know this i use to built pcs on the side.

i would make a custom pc 1.4ghz 2 yrs back and sell for 600
nowadays i can not even sell one cause ppl are like well dell sells them cheaper, see they understand cheaper by they do not understand that i put top end chips in my machines a ton of ram and big harddrives and that dell uses celerons 256meg shared ram a old 40 gig hdd in there low end crappers. so if you sold it for 300 then i say u did good not too high and not giving it away.plus your machine is a couple of yrs old.

I agree with retarfd.. People that are buying thoes dell's and e-machines are headed down a road of problems. With computers you pay a price for reliability and speed. At leaset they might see that next time. Someone I know did, took a baseball bat to his e-machine after 4 months and asked me to build one heh..

Sold him my old one $500 (little pricy but he offered)

AMD 2800+
1gb crucial ram
80gb HDD
ATi 9700 Pro
Abit AT7-MAX2 MB
DVD Burnder and CDRW.
Plus I have a nice software bundle

He said he'd never buy from another company again

I was making up a quote today for a gamer computer. It's not the hottest, but it'll play BF2 on high easy, plus it can be upgraded to the moon. Anyway, beautiful system, minus kb and mouse, less than $1000.

I went to Dell's website and built one as similar as possible (it ended up with a higher frequency cpu), which came out to almost $2500. What a ripoff. And the best part is, even though it should have been faster than mine, mine could blow it out of the water so easily.

Are the specs you posted your current specs or your future specs?
