Hey John,

My wife needed a new computer and after looking around quite a bit I picked out a Dell with:

2.8 Ghz Processor
80 GB Hard Drive
1 GB RAM
256 MB Video
13 Slot Media Bay
TV Tuner Card
DVD-RW/CD-RW Combo Drive
2nd CD ROM Drive
3.5 External Floppy Drive
Windows XP Media Edition
19" Flat Panel LCD Monitor

For about $850. That's a lot of computer for the money. Once it arrives and I check it out, I may order one for myself!

I've been using Compaq for years...laptops and desktops with very few issues. Dell seemed to have the better deal this time...certainly worth a look.
