kespernorthI was going through the paper, looking for the unemployment section, and came across a full-page, full-color spread that was trying to flog Dell computers.
Excuse me, but when did PCs get so goddamn cheap? $560 for a nearly-top-of-the-line machine? What the fuck?
I paid $3000 for my computer, back in 1996. It was sexy then. Now... heh.
*crie* I want one. Better yet, I want a laptop. So many reasons to want a laptop now...

(Be careful with new dells and upgrading the PS or the Mobo, they're pulling something with the voltages on the power cables that can fry a non-dell board)
