    Yeah, but you don't get its service, and there will be no chance of incompatibilty. A branded computer always costs more than an assembled one.

    Re: Good computer or not?

    Since dell sent their support overseas I've heard nothing but bad things about it...

    as far as Service... I am my service so it doesn't effect me... and I'm certified to do warranty work for most retailers... but I guess if you can't...

    BTW that is a good deal coming from dell or any of the big sellers....
