More Compy Opinions...

Alright, so most people I've talked to recommend getting a Dell. Surfing their site, I put together the following:
Dimension XPS Series
2.8 GHz, 1GB Mem, 18-inch LCD (I'm tired of my 19-inch crt), 128MB ATI Radeon 9800, 80GB HD, DVD Rom drive, 'Free' CD burner (RW, 48/28/48), 1 Year warranty (I figure it will break before then if it is going to). Total price is 2499 (2500), and there is a 150 rebate, not factored into the price. So it could cost me about 2350.

Strange I don't see how many PCI slots it has... I need at least 1 for wireless access... Anyhow, any thoughts, feedback? Thanks!

Edit: Friend of mine suggested Alienware as a cheaper alternative... it's about the same price wise, but seems like a friendlier website for the technically enabled. Considering I actually know the difference between most of the components... Any advice appreciated. :-)

Falcon?

Have you looked in to falcon? I know they can make some kick ass computers just look at Chris's.

Ouch. Expensive!

It crossed my mind. So I just went over there to check it out. Very expensive. Dell ~2500, Alienware ~26/700 and these included an 18-inch LCD monitor. I was customizing on Falcon, I was at 2600 without a monitor. Ouch. I'm leaning toward the alienware right now.
