there is tax need to be added to the equation. but looks like a great deal. only thing it would be better for them to allow option for a better graphic card.

If they allow for onboard only, then you can add a different graphics card later. The worst part is with standard pre-built systems it is far harder to do any OC'ing.

Not to mention the weak power supplies..

Last time I checked one of Bens HP quad system deals it had a 200W PSU. Don't bother if you want to do anything besides the basics with this thing. A 9500GS isn't doing it for me, either.

Why does the power supply matter?

#5 If they're too weak, they won't hold up to the air pressure changes. Nor the shifting of the magnetic poles:

I ordered a a6660t last week with this code. I ordered the Quad Core, 3GB RAM, selected on board graphics and then ordered a video card and 580w PSU from newegg. Just got it yesterday, so far very happy. Even showed up two days early.
True, it's not as expandable as a DIY rig. But works for me, I don't have the time to fiddle with one now.
