    I've got a discounted offer for Vostro 410 thru Dell's EPP:

    Core 2 Quad 6600

    Vista home Basic(english/Hindi)

    4 GB DDR2-800MHZ Ram

    250 GB 3GB/s HDD

    Nvidia geforce 8800 GT (512MB GDDR3)

    Sound Blaster X-FI Xtreme Gamer Soundcard

    McAfee Security center-15months OEM

    Microsoft Works 9.0

    Dell Network Assistance-12 months

    3 years NBD+ 3years Complete cover(includes Accidental Damage)"THE BEST PART"

    discounted cost-41.2K ,,online price-55K

    And Dell US 2009W including 5 years Premium panel warranty-13K



    that means54K for descent enough rig..I could save some money while still investing remaining on dedicated 2.1+amplifier setup



    P.S.:Whether it;s safe to go for DELL's EPP(Employee Purchase Program)as the billing would be in name of Dell empoyee,,whom I've known quite recently..but I would pay the company and ownership would be kinda joint.

    Anybody having history of EPP,please illucidate as iam bit apprehensive.



    And About the quality of Vostro 410(One review on site,,says it gets heated up as single fan cooling soln is applied) but hope it would be safe given the brand's quality and of course the all inclusive 3 years Warranty



    So,guys please advise wot to do,,dell epp or go the assembled route,,

    Assembled I would say, I think you will still end up saving a chunk of cash.



    Let someone else do the exact math



    Get the box assembled. Get the Monitor from dell. You might want to look at a 22" too

    yeah,I understand that assembled would be cheaper,,but would it be worth the premium,,,saving on money...but losing the 3 years complete cover warranty,,which includes even accidental DAMAGE!!!
