[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 134647"] I just got a Dell Inspiron 530 without the monitor for $460.00. The only thing I upgraded was the processor to a dual processor. Makes a HUGE difference with speed. Since you're going to be running Vista, I would at least recommend a dual processor and 1 gig of RAM. I think it's an 80 gig hard drive, but no way will I ever use that much of it. I had 30 gig on my last computer that I had for 6 years and I never had more than 20 gig of the hard drive used and difficult child had tons of games on it. My last computer was an HP and it was a good computer. I got Dell because it had the best price at the time I bought. I ordered before the end of the year because I wanted Windows XP. I really don't like Vista. [/QUOTE]
