Looks like a very good no monitor deal. Particularly considering the decent video card.

Internally is there any advantage of the Inspiron 518 over the Inspiron 530? At first glance, the only difference I see is how many PCI slots, I think.

In for 1. Great find Op! Does Dell check that you are really an employee to get the EPP discount?

This blows away the other deals. Better parts internally and free shipping to boot.

Combine with 5% EPP game coupon off to make it hotter (just upgrade some parts up to 799), or with 6% off AAA coupon

Bsel pin mod. On the bottom right corner of the chip there's a notch, you put a tiny piece of duct tape over the first pin above that notch.

It's not tape. Search for "conductive ink pen overclock". It works on Dell's (what the original pin mod was done on).

Unless there's something you really want to add the extra 5% coupon on 799$ raises the price.

And FC is not valid on Dell EPP purchases. Still Green though for the config, especially the HDMI. Just drop in a TV tuner and you have a great Media Center PC.
