Dell Computer 21
In other words, you don't know. You just said something to support your point no matter if it's true or not. I understand. Ok. When that warranty runs out, you'll see who saves...

No....obviously I was making a generalization. We are talking about the average user.
Disagree
Mine and his opinion are based on combined 35 years in the IT industry, hardware and software.
Uh....ok.....if you want your own case....fine. Not usually a concern for the average user. Most DVD devices do not support DVD-RAM. That would be a highly specialized need. Average user? No.
You mean "manufacturers". So you better keep up with every receipt you have. Again, not something your average user will want to deal with. It is not practical or cost effective for them.
Who said anything about buying Celerons???
IF your old ram works with your new motherboard. No guarantee.
What claim am I trying to justify? Why merely try something that has been fully supported? Obviously incorrect...
Not from newegg.com. You're talking manufacturer warranties. More on that later.
That's great. Manufacturer warranties are wonderful if you don't mind having to keep every receipt for every single part. Problem is that when there is a problem, your average user will not be able to troubleshoot their machine and find the defective part. Even if they can, they will have to ship the part off to get it replaced. In the meantime, no computer. Hope it wasn't important. I pay a little more and am back up and running within a few days.
$150 more for 3 years if you need it. Granted, I'm not sure that's worth it. I'd rather have a one year warranty from Dell than a three year warranty on 10 different parts from 10 different manufacturers. So would the average user.
Ugh....fine. Choose XP Home instead at no extra charge or pay extra and get Pro. I've used Media Center before and found nothing wrong with it. Either way, none of this comes with your parts.
Never heard of this and I'm doubtful. You'll have to come up with some reference.
Yep, I was wrong about that.
Ok, but the average user doesn't care about the MB brand. Drives are going to vary no matter who makes them.
Most of which is oblivous to the average user anyway. Usually folks look at processor, memory, and hard drive. Anything more specific than that and folks would get totally lost.
I was referring to the newegg.com warranty and I did not say it was all the components. And again, I call one company for all my support needs. You have to deal with several and have a long turn around time on your components. Dell comes to me usually the next business day.
Look John, we just aren't going to agree on this. I'll give you the last word.
