You know, I used to say this. My Dell 2300 has been rock solid for 2 years.

Sure I don't game, or anything like that. But two years ago, I got a P4 1.8GHz with 784MB of RAM and a 40GB hard drive shipped to my home for $500.

I added another 120GB drive I had in a removable drive tray I put in the box.

No crashes, no windows re-installs, no driver conflicts.

It just works.

I can build computers all day long, and did have a dual PIII processor SCSI disk workstation before that, and prefer the rock solid performance of the dell over the bleeding edge hell of my homemade systems.

But then I work on computers for a living, so I wanted one that just worked. Other than my Sun workstations, my Dell has been really solid and worth the $$$ to me.
