Any of you Gabbers work for or have insight into the workings of ordering Dell equipment on line or by phone?
I'm getting close to collecting enough cans to make a purchase, but want to be able to communicate intelligently with the Computer geek I order from.
Little help here?

1. Anyone who knows enough about computers to make an informed decision does not work in retail, so you probably know as much as he does unless you're Jilly.
2. Don't buy it unless you've found a coupon or a deal or you're a student. Check out often.
3. If some Emerson on GAB yells at you to make your own computer, tell him to Frost off and that you wouldn't let him see your boobs if he were the last guy on erf.
4. Stop Frost-ing around and buy this.

Getting your Dell over the phone can be a risky and expensive proposition.
I prefer to go the the playgroung to get by dell from children for free. Or when I think the authorities are on to me I'll just print a few pics from the album and go dell in the bathroom.
Wait, what are we talking about?

Phuc is right. Unless you have coupon or you're a student, don't bother. I ordered a laptop from their site, and it would have cost a small fortune had I not had discounts through being a student.

If you live near a university put up a want ad. The little piss ants will sell daddys Shakespeare cheap when they need beer or pot money. I picked up a Thinkpad (yeah, pissoff I like it) for $100 bucks that way.

The only advantage of dell used to be tha support and warranty, and the support has turned to Shakespeare.
That being said there are several people here who build custom systems, myself and Blue Lep being two.

Here. It's good, it's cheap, the support is good, and if something goes wrong, you're protected, which is a gamble with custom houses.
Now gimme some rice.

Pubah is always concered about being 'Goatsed' when opening PhucLinks...not to be confused with cufflinks which Pubah wears on special occasions.
Looks like I'll need to collect more cans or get used to staring at seventh grade pastylegs.

I don't believe that I have every goatse'd or tubgirled anyone, and I only once didn't label a link that was NSFW and that was because I was trying to suck my own Coleridge at the time and I was kind of lightheaded.
Whatever you do, don't get one of these. It's been in the retail store so long, it's circuits are crossed.

Go to Best Buy and get a mid-range Gateway. They're stable and they have a secondary "doctor drive" that allows the computer to restore itself. They're cheap, and you can upgrade them as you need to, as long as you know what you're doing. Just make sure you get a Core 2 Duo processor and don't let them stick you with an AMD P.O.S., or an older Pentium for that matter.

Whatever you do--stay away from the cow box!!! Defective motherboards and Jilly-like customer service should be enough of a deterrent.
You can get a huge deal on a Dell if you keep searching slickdeals.net or fatwallet.com for coupons. Yeah, it's not as good as having some pasty-faced dork build you one, but in buying a name brand, you are helping keep our gene pool that much cleaner.
