no...seriously...? a desktop (minus monitor) for this price?

I gotta agree, wat a stinker of a deal. At least add in Blu-Ray for this price.

Well I don't agree. I think this is a fantastic bargain.
Consider the $500GB hard drive. That alone is worth 500 giga-billion dollars!
Then there's a Core2 which is actually a quad. That's double the value.
But wait, there's more!
It comes without a screen, which is a clever way to reduce shipping costs!
It also is delivered with Win32 Vista, which reduces your usable memory to a maximum of 3.2GB, which allows you to sell the other 0.8GB on ebay!
The icing on the cake is the fact that this is made by Dell: 'nuff said.
Why, I think I'm in for 100 and I will keep 50 and resell the others at a vast profit.
This is exciting!

same unit but refurb is $619 at dell outlet, wtf?

I got a Studio 540 back in December for $478 shipped:

Q8200
8GB RAM
2x640GB HD
DVDRW
x3450 Video
Vista Home Premium

How is this a bargain for $602?

#5 did you not realize the upgraded video card

4670 ??

that's about #1220 better

#3, 3.2GB ought to be enough for anybody.

I picked up a Dell Inspiron 530 off of the outlet with the 15% off the outlet for $599 with tax & shipping. XP Pro with Vista Home Premium, Q8300 Quad, 4GB Memory, 640GB HD, Media Reader, DVD Burner.
