RE: [Elecraft] OT - Way off topic, but Dell is giving away machines
Dan, I found it. Seems it has no operating system. Do you read it that way too? I'm not sure I have an operating system I can use. My Daughters Compaq went belly up due to a power surge last week, but the restore disk probably checks to see if it is the right model Compaq, and my computers are the same way. Possibly I can get a Windows 2000. 73 Chas At 06:00 PM 1/3/2005, Dan Barker wrote: It's a bear to find. www.dell.com, click small business, Click "Servers, Storage and Networking", Scroll down a bit and click "Customize it" next to the $224 teaser (that's a 40G harddrive).

Did a little research - looks like there is onboard video but an XP driver may or may not be available. Also, all PCI slots and no AGP. Looks like they were being sold for even less last month.

At the top of the configuration list: Note: For server use only; CANNOT BE USED AS A DESKTOP. Dell does not support the use of a graphics card on the SC420. Still, a great price. The other desktops they're selling are priced well.

RE: [Elecraft] OT - Way off topic, but Dell is giving away machines
It's a bear to find. www.dell.com, click small business, Click "Servers, Storage and Networking", Scroll down a bit and click "Customize it" next to the $224 teaser (that's a 40G harddrive). Pay LOTS of attention. Some of the "options" have prices like "remove $99". Don't know if this link will work for you, but you can drill in as above. http://configure.us.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?c=us&cs=04&kc=6W300&l=en&; oc=sc420sapp&s=bsd They are kind of high for disks, but the memory is decent.
