Get a free Canon Printer too!!

$49.99 printer with a $50 Mail-in Rebate with purchase of any desktop Some report must be on same receipt:
Canon PIXMA™ Photo Printer (iP1500)

This one clearly can be purchased on different receiptsFree IP3000 printer from Newegg

Printer is $64.96. If you click on the $20 rebate form, you'll see that it is also a $70 rebate form if you've bought a computer between 2/1 and 9/1

And, you'll see that it is strongly implied that you are allowed to buy the printer and computer in seperate purchases.

See wording where it says attach receipts and where it asks for the name of each store where the PC and printer were purchased

linky

thanks op!


Can't see a down side on this deal. How do these hold up?


does this have dvi output?


You can get a deal for about the same price and it includes monitor.Linky


great deal, almost as good as the sempron 3000+ system for $240.00 with no rebates 3 weeks ago.

i sold all 4 of those already, i might pick up 2 of these to resell for $500.00 a peice.

this is good because this is a 754 socket A64 BASED MOTHERBOARD, most likely a Via Km800 chipset, i will hit the store today and find out.

that Dell deal is not as good, its the oldass celery 2.4ghz 400fsb, not the celery D, even the celery D is not as fast as a A64 based sempron 3100+. also the Dell only has a 90 day warranty. and no dvd-rw drive, this is a much better deal. unless you are a Intel idiot and have to buy crappy slowass intel computers, because of brain washing buy the 3man group.


crappy slowass intel computers, Now those are words I can understand! I was wondering how
that other deal was a better deal. Looks like I'm off to Circuit City!
Thanks!


Please don't turn this into another AMD vs Intel thread.


Thanks OP, I got one I think it's a hot deal. I've had an older model emachines for a few years and it's never given me any problems.


dniksich said:Please don't turn this into another AMD vs Intel thread.

What difference does it make? They run the same operating system, anyway, right?


I wonder what is in the occupied PCI slot. Probably the modem?


will the Best Buy Kingston 512M DDR 333 for $30 work in this machine?


Nube02 said:You can get a deal for about the same price and it includes monitor.Linky

wrong. the Dell has no agp ie way to efficiently better the video. also the emachines has a dvd writer adn teh Dell does not. that is a $45 difference in favor of the emachine right there


Picked one up. Now to put in a FAR MadDog AGP card I picked up a while back and to find 512MB of cheap memory


I picked one up.

it is indeed a K8m800 chipset A64 compatible motherboard, it is a "FIC" I beleive just like the Office Depot $230.00 computer from 4 weeks ago.

It does have a AGP 8X slot.
It does not have fireware, or atleast mine does not.
the 56K modem is the only PCI card in it, so it has 2 free PCI slots.
i did not check the ram yet to see if it is pc2700 or pc3200, it could be either, you would hope it is pc3200, but you never know.

Now if somebody would post a modified bios so this could be overclocked, mose sempron 745 socket cpu's will do 400mhz to 800MHZ above ther rated speed.

http://www.fic.com.tw/product/motherboard/amd/k8m-800m.aspx

probably this motherboard, but i will have to look again.


Hmmmm...seems pretty good.


correction, this is indeed the fic motherboard with sata150 raid and firewire.

it is a K8M-800M snd should be flashable with the bios on FIC website. this is getting better all the time.

it also has the exact same pc3200 samsung ram as was in the Office Depot deal a month ago.

so this should be runnig full speed. i still have not booted it up yet, will do in just a minute.

it has a extra case fan on the back for better cooling, i do't know why though cause the sempron 3100+ socket 754 probably runs cooler than the socket A sempron 3000+.

if this thing overclocks well, this will be a awesome deal, for a super cheap start to a gaming rig.


tbogstad, did I read you right that this does have a firewire port?
Thanks!
