I caved in... (DUDE! He's getting a DELL!)

[strredwolf]

Christmas got me a few work shirts and pants that were nessisary in easing tension in the household... but...

I've caved in.

The cheapest, yet modern NVidia laptop would be $1500.  A Whitebook (no-OS, custom) would be $850 if I skimped on the processor and GPU.

Yet an ATI Radeon X1300 sporting Dell Inspiron E1505, with a Core Duo processor, only costs $870.  Under $900.  For a Core Duo!

So, I caved.  The laptop's being built now.

That, and the delay in getting Vista out means they got to discount them and tack on "Free VISTA UPGRADE!" coupons just to get hardware out the door.

Doesn't matter to me now.
