where i work we use all dell stuff i nthe office, ok i very much prefer my home PC ,but i would not say the build qualit yof any of their products is bad. They manufacture in bulk, this is how they make things cheap, and manufacturing in bulk doesn talways mean poor build quality.

alu would be nice, but the build quality of this thing is secodn to none, i think dell take quality very seriously.

LOL

Do you own any dell products? ROFL if you do.

I own 4 new dell dimensions and lots of other dell peripherals. The qualoty on all of them is terrible. Ever look inside a dell computer? do it and then come back and post.

The only reason I buy so much dell stuff is because of the price. Nothing Else.

*Edit*

1. I realized that I spelled Quality wrong, but it still works, so I will leave it there.

2. Dell's high end products are quite nice (xps, 2005fpw, 12" laptop, dj), but their medium and lower end is like crap (8000 series and below, tech support, mouse and keyboard)

well yeah, I agree ultrasharps are nice ( I own my fair share), but what about the non-ultrasharp ones? the ones made by samsung and not Benq?

they stink.

Ever used dell's low end laptops?

They stink.

Ever called dell tech support?

They stink. (lol, they are indian, but I didn't mean it that way.)

that is EXACTLY how my workstation would look like if I actually bought all my games like you. :)

seriously man, ever heard of bittorrent?

must be nice actually owning all your games though. I wish I could afford doing that.

obviously, you have no eyes, no offence. if you compare it to a high end sony/samsung/lg...you'd KNOW right away that the dell sucks penis

Very nice, sam. I like the mounted monitor/speakers. And IK, you can't afford games, but 4 nice monitors? :p

Well, if you added up the value of all my downloaded games and software...

30x PSone games = $30 x 30 = $900

49 Xbox games (Just the ones currently on the HDD, I had much more before) = $70 = 43 = $3010

10 PC games = $30= 1- = $300

Photoshop, MX suite 2004, office 2003 and 2004, and almost every software I own = over $2000

add tax and you are sitting in the $7141 chair.

I dont have $7141.

Thanks, everybody! I can't take the credit though, my dad pretty much made the entire setup (he has a knack for neatening things up real well, and he's picky about BEING neat, not that I have a problem with that :D ). This photo only shows about half of my game boxes (the rest are to the left of the frame). I wanted to display the computer game and hardware boxes I have collected over the years. I own about 80 PC games but only collected about 30 boxes (the bottom drawer is stuffed full of the jewel cases of the games, amazingly enough, all ~80 game jewel cases fit in there). I also have some boxes of hardware I have bought or got as presents over the years behind the viewpoint, too.

All the consoles connect to the LCD monitor and to the speakers. The controllers, as you can see, are stored in the top drawer, so I just open that up, and take out the controller I need.

The PowerMac G3 is just connected to the network since I have SETI@home running exclusively on it with Yellow Dog Linux 4.0.

Everything you see is plugged into a single UPS.

why would you pay to support a ridiculous project?

unless im mistaken about what SETI is.

585382219[/snapback]

SETI@home is free. It downloads radio satellite data from Berkeley University and the computer analyzes it for potential extraterrestrial radio signals. And I acquired the Macintosh for free from the high school I went to. The only thing that costs money for it is the power (and to a lesser extent the internet connection).

Well yeah, you are paying for electricity. Why?

It's not like SETI has any real uses.

Yeah, I guess we should just give up on space exploration. :p

Oh, and it's cheap to run. The peak power output is 200W, and it only costs about $8.76 per month (but that's at peak power). So, yeah, for the cost of a meal I can run this thing 24/7. :)
