It’s not a Pentium D
It’s a Core based processor, it’s a low level Core2Duo that Intel don’t want to cheapen the Core2 brand with..
As I understand it anyway
Seems you’re right
it’s definitely new. if you go to http://configure.ap.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?c=au&cs=a... a slighly worse config goes for $799.
Excellent deal. Is this for real or likely to be a mistake? How long is it valid for?
A 19” LCD monitor alone is nearly $200, so essentially you are getting a PC for only $150!
ih8parties, you clinched it for me, since the price of the monitor is already 200, pc only for 150 - 180, i grabbed one too!
I’m hoping there’s more than 2 RAM slots.. Cause I’m hoping to transplant RAM for 4Gb..
If not, the MSY price for that extra 2Gb is more than $40 too (cause you’ll have to buy 2x2Gb)
I tried it.. wont find out for ages though I assume.
Will only work out to $12 so not much gained (or lost)
So despite not buying anything you still got cashback!!
:-)
Free money from Dell.. Nice..
Should have specced out the system to the max increase it’s price!!
Just checked my MBC account and nothing..
I haven’t had any form of email contact either, nor a phone call… it’s like Dell never got my order in the first place!!
Even less happy now :-(
No mention of Digital Audio Out, but DVI is standard these days. Doubt it has HDMI out either.
I will be using mine as a HTPC, with a proper graphics card (with HDMI) and a USB Digital Audio out box.. but I own both already..
Interesting.. but doesn’t bother me, like I said, I’ll be transferring across a discreet Video card anyway..
Just bought one too, upgraded to 20”. Have absolutely no need for another PC but how can you resist an offer like this. Hope it actually comes through :)
One thing to note is that it only has Windows Vista Home Basic and not Home Premium which means you miss out on goodies like Vista Media Centre - a must if you plan to use it as a HTPC. You will need to buy a Home Premium license and a MCE remote too (about $50).
EDIT: Wow, I must have just gotten in with seconds to spare. Will they actually fulfil the order? Hmm…
yep same… though just got an order in (minus discount)… prob get rejected i’m imagining..
I think they’re now just realised something wrong…

I order it at 12:37, tried to get a mate on board at work but he missed out. Got the confirmation email from Dell too. Fingers crossed it gets delivered.
I got an order confirm mail at 12:25 but my friend missed it out 10 minutes later…
i work for dell and sorry to burst your bubble guys but….
“MISTAKES: While all efforts are made to check pricing and other errors, inadvertent errors do occur from time to time and Dell reserves the right to decline orders arising from such errors. “
will be on most pages at the bottom of the dell website. so its most likely they will cancel all orders unfortunatly because i ordered one for myself… :( the only way they will be processed is if dell waive it and let the orders go through fingers crossed but i highly doubt it…
was a great deal though… had many people enquire about it
Love woolies
Apparently, Dell run business differently.Sigh
Dell will not be responsible for typographical, pricing or other errors and reserves the right not to process orders based on such errors. Dell reserves the right not to process orders for any other reasonable reason as otherwise determined by Dell.
let’s see what’s going to happen but more and more often I can see that once there is a good deal (thanks to ozbargain), something happens that ruins it. The only thing I feel once such a deal falls through is a deep frustration. Hopefully, this one is real as Dell is a big and respectful company (I’ve bought a desktop and a PDA from them before). Nevertheless I voted for the deal, does not matter if it was a fake or real one by Dell, cause the findings itself is just wonderful.
For me it would mean that I won’t have to worry about ANY Dell sales any more.
Why to bother ? If you see a good deal it will be cancelled, if it is not going to be cancelled it means that it was not a good one.
I still hope they’ll show some respects to the buyers and confirm the submitted deals.
They closed their offer once they realised that can’t probably sell their stuff at the advertised price. But it should be just like in any other store - you can change a price tag any time but it shouldn’t affect people who already purchased goods.
anyone remember the SATA drives for $6.00 when they where something like $150 everywhere else :) I ordered 100 but they canceled the order :(

Why is this so cheap?
