HAY GUYS

Dell also tends to have 35%-40% off of said computer as well as offering ridiculous package deals for bulk purchases by businesses. Honestly, I've been building computers for a long time, but these days you hardly save any money by building your own compared to having Dell do it for you. Of course, when you build a computer, you tend to have the choice of selecting quality parts for every aspect which isn't always the case with Dells.

But most people don't have the knowledge to build their own computers, so I can understand why they go for Dell. And having to build 100+ computers for a business would suck ass. No way in hell I'd ever do that. Also, did this computer come with a monitor? Most Dell computers also throw in a virtually free 17 or 19 inch decent quality LCD monitor.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

And trying to fix some of them yourself requires you to perform feats of god, given placements of some of the items.

And yet my company has 425 Dell made Optiplex desktops and I've had a total of ZERO hardware failures on any of them since we purchased them 2 years ago.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
