Dell's "Deals" Not So Good.. Thanks to Vista

Quote from ProfitTakgFool:

I have one Dell PC with Vista on it and it's a piece of shit. The operating system is so unstable you can't run more than one application at a time without the screen flickering, missing DLL's on startup, windows updates lock up the system, there's more but why continue. I'm gonna downgrade it to XP. Never seen such crap from MSFT and they have a lot of crappy software out there.

Going to XP from Vista is not a downgrade its an UPGRADE.

VISTA SUCKS DONKEY BALLS!!!!!!!

and Microshit should be sued for forcing it on people. When you order a new Dell of course you can have XP installed on your machine........................ if you want to pay the fucking downgrade rights of $190.
 
Ha, nice screen name!

The current crop of Dell "deals" is about $120-$150 worse thanks to Vista.

I bought a Vostro 400 with XP on a deal which I got processed through before they noticed a $110 pricing error on the CPU.

After what I went through earlier in the year . . . Why in the world are you screwing around with a Vostro?

Did you not purchase a Dell Precision T3400 Workstation several months ago?

WTF???

Yeah, WTF.... I bought a Vostro because (1) it was a deal "I couldn't refuse", and (2) I had a single dedicated function use for one. It's OK for that.

I've also bought 3, T3400s...

BTW... I tested a NVS 290 PCIEx16 + a 285x1 card in the attempt for a 4-monitor rig in a Vostro... BIOS said, "no way, HoseA".
 
My Vostro 400 refurbished deal was $519 and included a 3.0 Intel Processor with Windows XP.

As you know, I bit on it.
And it nearly choked me to DEATH!

:(

Thats the one you sent back before you got the T3400?

Correct.

That is the one that I was unable to use the eVGA GeForce 6200 PCI graphics card with, in the PCI slot so that I could support a 3rd monitor.
