Does it matter?
You guys hate Dell so much. I don't really like them much, either, but the crap I see spouted here about them not being worth the cardboard boxes they ship in is BS.

For the dollar, you can't really buy much better. I have quite a number of their 400SC servers, purchased from $223 to $399 for 2.0GHz Celeron to 2.8GHz 800MHz FSB P4 systems. Intel 875 chipset. No OS loaded on the box.

1 year in-home service is included, not that I would ever call unless something just busted, but the components are all well put together, and no failures.

You simply can not buy this kind of product anywhere else, and so this is what I buy, excepting my "main" AMD system that I continue to build from parts as a hobby.

Frankly, the Dells are AWESOME, and crush anything else at that price point. Especially because the can come OS-less.
