Here are my specs for 606.00 Can someone tell me if this is worth it? I need a system that has word/excel, we run AOL & Itunes along with Word or Excel all at once and it is killing our current machine, we are always out of memory, out of space.... having said that, have I equipped this thing too greatly?

I chose the choose your own carrier - typed in "free shipping" for each of the three boxes (choose your own carrier is free) - called up, said that I was confused because the only option I saw for the free shipping that I was told I'd get with a popup box was that one - but I've never been asked to enter my account information before. She said that is a common problem, corrected it and sent me an email stating as such. Free shipping. Of course, YMMV! |

So you think if I go to the University I can get the window's upgrade cheaper? Do you know roughly how much? Any reliable place you'd look for the CPU? Thanks! |

Isn't the only Ultrasharp monitor on the list the 1908WFP? How much differenceare the ultrasharp monitors, and is a larger non-ultrasharp monitor a better choice? Here's what the monitors cost with the extra cost if chosen with this deal: E207WFP $189 +$40 1908WFP $164 +30 1708FP $199 +20 E2209WFP $259 +60 E1909WFP $199 default Why do they charge extra for the 1908WFP and 1708FP if they're both cheaper at the online store? |

Did you get free shipping? Nope. Used the 5% coupon though... $372.00 total including tax & shipping. Picked up the CCity deal for Logitec 5.1 speaker set at $50 after rebate as well. Nice replacement system for relatives with an old crappy system. |

Has everyone seen this one that Best Buy is offering for Black Friday? I have no idea what quantity they will have or if it is available online or in-store? Just says coming soon. Link |
