I picked up the computer today from Memory Express. Rather than getting in and out of there, for some reason all of the sale pricing wasn't popping up and they were wanting to charge almost $200 more than my invoice. The girl and I were joking as half an hour passed by while her manager tried to fix it all properly, suggesting they should get to know some computer people. Anyways, the build was $10 more for a splitter cable they needed to add for the rear fan - that's why it's worth having them build it.

My wife and I had already decided to give this computer to my son today rather than him waiting a month for his birthday. First, ME offers a 30 day warranty over the counter. 2nd, my wife can get her computer back as my son has been locking it up for months, and 3rd - his Bday is too damn close to Xmas anyways.

I got him to help pull it out of the car and when he realized this computer was for him (he thought I bought myself a new computer)- he was without words; one happy soon-to-be 12 year old. I can't say little, as he is taller than mom and up to my eyes already. He helped me load Windows (another $15 key from Amazon), do all the updates and downloads, then it was all smiles for miles.

Thanks again, roastpuff. That beer(s) IOU just doubled.
