About a month ago, we got a Gateway from Office Depot. Came with 17" LCD monitor, Canon printer/scanner/copier, dual core (whatever that means) hard drive. When and if the rebates come in, I think it will be a pretty good deal.
It came loaded with Vista. The only problem that I've encountered with the new operating system is getting it to recognize my Kodak camera USB connection. I liked XP a lot, but despite all the bad press, Vista ain't all that bad.
