As I went to check my e-mail today on Hotmail I saw an ad on MSN for a Dell Vostro. Starting at $439 I thought to myself is this for real? I know in the past there have been computers that cheap but most were not very good quality running on celerons with a mere 256 mb of RAM. Letting my curiosity get the best of me I clicked on the ad.

As I looked at the set up I couldn’t believe it. After a couple of upgrades, all for under $600 you get the following in this wallet saving desktop: a Core 2 Duo Processor, Windows XP home edition, 1 GB of Ram, a 160 GB hard drive, a 128 MB NVIDIA GeForce 8300 GS, and a Dell 17″ Flat Screen Display!!!!!

Now if your looking for a great computer, at an affordable cost, and you wanna stick with XP… the Dell Vostro is for you! I was listening to Chris talk to wirelesspacket the other day about having dedicated computers for certain tasks like how he has just a mac mini for his live stream. Well if you need a dedicated PC but you dont wanna spend around 1,000 just to have an important task run, you could definitely get a Dell Vostro and have that ability without breaking the bank.
