Oh... I'll check that out, thank you. I was putting myself in a game blackout... can't tell you why.
Being stubborn, I suppose... if I can't watch it, then I won't find out a thing about it.
I remember someone telling something about cutting off noses to spite faces...

I have been watching the Olympics a little, but my wife watches them more than me. She loves the ice skating (go figure.) They are entertaining, and I certainly like them better than the summer Olympics.
Well, I just bought a new PC. We have been limping ours along for a couple years at home because I just didn't want to buy a new one. I had no idea what to get. Well, we took it in to get it fixed and they said it is beyond repair. Luckily, I talked to a friend of mine and he asked me what I wanted to use it for, and he sent me a link and said "here, buy this one." haha. He made it so easy for me. I won't get it for about 3 weeks as they have to build it, but I am pretty excited now that it is over and done.

Brent...so, I take it you didn't buy a laptop?
TB-good to see you here...stop disappearing on us...
PC is right, alot of the Olympics you can catch on the net...
I love Apollo Ohno too...but, I really like Shaun White, just something about him and his enthusiasm.

Nope Anew, not a laptop. I have one now, and I just really want a desktop I think. Something I can set up on a computer desk in the family room and just have a nice family computer. Something I can leave all of the stuff plugged into, and not have to be disconnecting things all the time.

Yeah, not sure TJ. It just says estimated ship date of March 11th when I checked out. So maybe not 3 weeks, more like 2 weeks. But it is 7 day shipping, so about three weeks total. I really didn't want to wait either, but I think you get much more for your money doing it this way. I looked at Best Buy, and they are much more there for the same machine. So if you can wait, I think it is a better value.

Hi Brent --- I looked, too. Ship date is 3/25 for me. I didn't order it yet... lots of options, aren't there? I may go to Target tonight and just check out what they have in stock. But then again, I may end up ordering what you did.

That is the problem TJ, everyone has an opinion when it comes to this sort of deal. Everyone with a computer becomes an "expert." haha. And what I did notice was at dell.com different machines have different ship dates.
The Dell Online Store: Build Your System
That is the official one I DID order. My total came to about $650. I ordered a larger screen and some speakers. I would order quickly, as this has changed even since yesterday. Hope this helps. And you will notice the ship date is March 11th.

Hey D, where are you?!?! Shouldn't you be stopping this thread and starting our "August group Part 8?"
I try to check in to the daillies at least once a day. Just PM the nearest available mod if I miss it.
