If dell can offer the computer for $200.00 less, just shows you one they get a discount for bulk, and two, their parts are that much cheaper. I did not see that -200 on the bottom of their, my mistake on my part. The higher end dell computers are worth it. but if your gonna try to save a buck or 200. just go to a local comp store and get a very low end computer that uses good pieces. they can build them too!
