Dell is doing fine, and I think they will continue doing fine with or without AMD :)

Well, AMD is slowly gaining a bigger audience. I do believe that Intel is going to be faced with a loss in the market in the next few years. Yes, Dell doesn't cater to gamers, they are more for buisness/personal use. I, myself, would never buy one, which is why I was so thrilled to get rid of the Dells in our office when we replaced them with Alienwares. Hell, even our head of department is going to get an Alienware laptop now. He is almost totally against Dells now.

Do you guys use Auroras?

that's a pretty well off business you've got there gnogtr, to be able to afford alienwares for everybody... Dell may not win you any benchmarks, but their prices aren't as bloated as alienware either...

Actually, we got a quote from both Dell and Alienware, and the Alienwares were much cheaper, beating out the Dells by a few thousand. Sorry J, you're wrong!

Yeah, we use Auroras. They are SWEET!!!!

BTW J, we got dual LCD monitors, AMD 64 3500+, 1GB of ram, 160 GB hdd, Dual layer DVD writers, and Radeon 9550 video for $2035 a pop.

decent... and oh no, my 425 shares of dell stock are so ashamed.. :/

I'd hope they were, they just got beat out by a much better computer for a better price. Muahaha!!!!
