The search is down or else I'd look too see if this is a repeating thread. That, plus it's probably named something obscure that I would never guess. Cuz y'all are crazy and The Kitchen Sink made me realize that maybe we should have a thread for tech support, upgrades, etc.

The plug: People are proud of their systems. Flaunt yo shit and post upgrades for your favorite applications.

The search option has never worked, to my knowledge.

There IS a thread like this somewhere. I'll try to dig it up.

Also I can't remeber the designations of my stuff

I bought this XPS200 from someone for $300, I know the motherboard was $250, the processor $600. It has about 5 or 6 HD places and a floppy drive (as if anyone uses those things anymore). A slight upgrade from my old comp was the DVD as opposed to regular CD burner. Apparently the network card is better than my old one, it's got a sound blaster audigy card, and nVidia something or other (5200?), and one 40GB and a 160GB (which I have yet to get working at the moment). Oh, and its big and shiny.

Don't worry, if the Bison ever take over the midlands Godzilla will take care of them. Just like he did with Bambi.

Which is why I'm glad I bought this off a freelance computer builder. He was given it free by a friend (because the motherboard was fried) so he bugged dell with the warranty and got it replaced.

Next time I get a computer, I am so not getting Dell. It may be more friendly to my checking account, but their systems are shitty and do not last long enough at all.

I've had this laptop for a little over a year and it acts like my iBook did after two or three.

...I've rarely had problems with Dell. The only one I can recall is when they first sent me my Desktop. For some reason it wouldn't turn on, after a week of troubleshooting, we figured out they needed to send me a new harddrive.

Haven't had a problem since.
